When you have finished packing, place a copy of your itinerary with dates and addresses inside each bag. Don't carry valuables, medications or flammable materials inside your checked luggage. Check your suitcase through to your final destination if possible and never leave luggage unattended.

Only a very small percentage of luggage is lost or misplaced by airlines, however, if this does happen to you, file a formal claim with the airline immediately, before leaving the airport. You will have to list the lost items, including date of purchase and cost. Keep the claim form, baggage check and ticket until you get reimbursed.

Remember to pack a change of clothes and your basic toiletries in a carry-on bag just in case.
