When packing for a trip, we often forget about the most necessary things. To avoid such annoying moments, UAportal has compiled a checklist that includes everything you might need. This will be a handy guide while traveling.

Basic documents

Do not forget to bring your passport and travel insurance documents. They are essential for any trip.

Reservations and tickets

Whether you're traveling by plane, train, bus, or ferry, it's a good idea to keep both electronic and printed copies of your tickets. In case of unforeseen problems, such as a lack of internet connection, having paper documents can save the day.

Cash and cards

Bring some of your own currency for immediate expenses and local currency for the destination you are traveling to. Make sure your card can be used abroad without restrictions and is registered to avoid any complications.

Emergency funds

It's always wise to have some extra cash on hand for emergencies. While it's tempting to spend it on last-minute pleasures, having a reserve fund can provide peace of mind.

Electronic devices

Don't forget to bring chargers for your phone, laptop, or other devices you plan to take with you. In addition, a portable charger can be a lifesaver. Don't forget a power adapter so your electronics can work in any country.

Basic first aid

Take a compact first aid kit with the most essential medicines in your carry-on baggage. It is better to be prepared for minor health problems while traveling.

Universal clothing and shoes

Choose versatile clothing that matches the culture and climate of your destination country. Carefully plan your outfit to minimize luggage space and avoid excessive baggage fees at the airport.
