Travellers offered packing tips

10 November 2006  Holidaymakers that have checked all their plans, purchased their travel money and arranged holiday insurance are being advised on completing the last necessary task before they catch the plane - packing their bags.

Online price comparison firm DealPass has listed five tips for travellers to help them pack appropriately and ensure their holiday goes without a hitch.

"You have to try and fit a week or two's worth of clothing, personal care items and accessories into a suitcase - all while making every effort to stay within your baggage and weight limits as directed by the airline," the company notes.

It recommends that travellers check the baggage regulations with their airline, consult a weather report for their destinations, pack multi-use clothing like t-shirts, packing bin liners for dirty and damp clothing and to pack potentially leaky toiletries in a zipped plastic bag.

A poll by holiday insurance provider esure recently reported that 65 per cent of holidaymakers pack a digital camera or camera phone on their holidays, with 30 per cent travelling with a video recorder.

Travellers should ensure their hi-tech gadgets are covered with sufficient holiday insurance, the company said.
