• Credit Card/ Debit Card

  Whichever card you use, at least have one of them. Now if it’s an international trip you would wanna be more careful about which card to take. Moreover having cards like American Express can help you get in a lot of lounges in airports.

  These confirmations might come in handy in case of any trouble in hotel check-in. You can have it printed or have a softcopy.

  

• Prescriptions For Medicines

  Planning on carrying medicines? Some countries have a strict policy against carrying medicines without a prescription. So make sure you carry yours.
