Packing Tips
Don’t over pack! A common mistake is to take too many clothes, unnecessary toiletries, etc. Each student must be
able to carry their own luggage. Usually one suitcase and a backpack are sufficient. Use Ziploc bags to hold
shampoos and other toiletries that could leak. Extra Ziplocs should be packed as well; these will be handy for wet
bathing suits and other wet or dirty clothes.
If traveling by air, students must carry a picture ID (driver’s license, ID card, passport, student ID, etc.) which matches
the name on his/her airline ticket.


Airline Bag Restrictions
Airlines restrict travelers to a maximum of two total bags on domestic flights, including equipment. One carry-on is
allowed, as long as it fits under the seat or in the overhead bin. Additional fees apply to checked bags and oversized/overweight cargo. NationsClassroom accepts no responsibility for additional fees and discourages you from
traveling with these items. As restrictions may vary by airline, please check your carrier’s website for more details.
In terms of liquid or gels packed in carry-on luggage, each passenger is allowed to pack a single, one-quart-sized,
transparent zip-top plastic bag. That bag can hold containers of liquids or gels that are less than three ounces in size
(about 100 ml).

Wrist Bracelets and Luggage Tags
Prior to travel, NationsClassroom will provide one bracelet and two luggage tags per traveler. After being filled out,
these tags may be collected by your Program Leader until final roll call prior to departure. Additionally, many
travelers find it helpful to attach a unique ribbon or tag to baggage, to avoid confusion between bags of similar
appearance.
