Connectivity & insurance before you fly
Two topics to close a few days before departure: how to avoid overpaying for data abroad and what to verify in your policy wording. Both guides are neutral (no brand picks) and include interactive checklists—progress stays in this browser’s memory so you can return before your next trip.
Insurance
Travel insurance
Wording, limits, assistance, baggage—three checklists: before purchase, reading terms, right before you fly.
Open the guide →Mobile data abroad
Roaming & eSIM
EU rules, outside the EU, phone unlock, offline backup. Checklists: before departure, after landing, security.

Jet lag & time zones
Compare home vs destination time in the browser (IANA / Intl), see simple light/sleep hints, and practical tips before, during, and after the flight.
What to pack — interactive checklists
Before you zip your bag, browse ten ready-made packing lists for different trips: a European city break, beach & tropics, Asia (temples, humidity), skiing, hiking, long-haul economy, business with carry-on only, road trip, family travel with a young child, and a minimalist “carry-on capsule” week. On the guide page you can tick items in the browser — progress stays in this browser’s memory (no account). Bookmark the page or add it to your home screen so you can return before your next trip and pick up where you left off.
Each list builds on a shared baseline (passport, cards, chargers, meds) and adds trip-specific gear — layers for mountains, sun protection for beaches, modest layers for temples. Cross-check plugs & voltage and airline baggage limits & pack-weight tool.
Quick checklist

Plugs & voltage

What to double-check for different kinds of trips
This hub links neutral guides and tools—no brand picks. Below is a quick map of what travellers usually close before departure by trip style; follow the links for checklists and detail.
Weekend break & short city trips (often carry-on only)
Confirm airline baggage limits, your data plan in the EU or abroad, and the packing guide scenario for a European weekend. On departure day, see at the airport: online check-in, liquids bag, time to the terminal.
Beach, tropics, and resort holidays
Beyond passport and travel insurance wording, use the beach & humidity list in what to pack (sun care, meds, adapters) and verify plugs & voltage at your destination.
Long-haul flights & big time-zone jumps
Pair jet lag & time zones (in-browser planner) with airport practicalities and the long-haul packing scenario in what to pack. Checked bags—check limits by airline again.
Business travel (carry-on workflow)
The business + carry-on list, roaming or eSIM in the roaming guide, and a rough budget in the trip cost estimator.
Family trips & road trips
What to pack includes child-friendly and road-trip checklists (documents, first aid, in-car entertainment). At airports, allow extra time before security.
Ski, hiking, and active holidays
Layers and gear—see the skiing and hiking scenarios in what to pack. Match activities to your policy limits (sports, altitude).
