A small pouch for your electronics keeps cables from tangling and helps you notice when something is missing. Use this checklist and adjust it to the devices you actually carry.
Power
- Phone charger and cable
- A compact multi-port charger so one outlet can charge several devices
- A power bank for long travel days
- A plug adapter if your destination uses different outlets
Audio and entertainment
Headphones, a short audio cable if needed and downloaded movies, music or books for times without a signal.
Documents and safety
- Digital copies of your passport and bookings stored securely
- A backup of your photos before you leave
- A phone number or email for emergencies saved offline
Small extras
A few cable ties or a small organizer, a spare charging cable and a microfiber cloth for screens are cheap and easy to carry.
Know the rules
Airlines have restrictions on spare lithium batteries and power banks, which usually must travel in carry-on luggage. Check your airline's current policy.
Pack the pouch the night before and charge everything fully, so you start the trip with devices that are ready.
Power and organization
