Vacation is just around the corner. If you're taking a plane, then you certainly must be asking yourself the age-old question: what should I bring in my carry-on? Here are our tips!
Cabin rules to follow
Packing your carry-on bag could get complicated with all of the restrictions, especially on liquids.
What exactly do they mean by liquids? Perfumes, lotions, creams, oils, gels, but also products with a paste-like consistency, such as toothpaste. Make-up is also concerned, as mascara, lip gloss, foundation, and even nail polish are also considered liquid or semi-liquid products. The same goes for aerosols, deodorants, and mousses.
Choose your products wisely, as they can’t exceed 3 fl. oz each, and they must fit in a clear sealable bag with a maximum capacity of 1 quart! A bit tight, isn’t it?
And what about other products? Despite what you may think, it is possible to bring on your nail clippers, nail file, a disposable razor, and even your hair straightener!
Do you have a perfume or cream that you absolutely must bring but that's larger than 3 fl. oz? No problem, you’ll just have to put it in the hold.
Don't forget to check the products you put in your baggage, because if the rules are not respected, there will be no exceptions and they’ll end up in the trash.
