on a separate piece of paper the number, date and place of issuance:
this information may be useful in the event of loss or theft.
You should also check whether the country you are visiting requires,
vaccinations, an entry visa, even for the purposes of tourism.

LUGGAGE
It is good practice to
label your luggage both inside and out with identifying information
(first name, last name, address, telephone number) and remove
luggage tags from previous trips. Before starting your trip, you should find out what items may be
carried in your hand luggage and in your checked luggage.
The dimensions and weights of checked luggage vary by airline, therefore you should contact your airline directly for such
information and for information on maximum weight allowances and
related fees.HAND AND HOLD LUGGAGE
