Business Travel Luggage Packing Guide

Author: GraceJennings Total views: 6 Word Count: 420

Travel has changed dramatically over the past few years. Even if you're a regular business traveler it's important to keep up with the ever-changing airport rules and regulations. Be sure you understand them before you even leave home.

A welcome change for the business traveler is now available at most of the major airports. Security checkpoints are commonly available for frequent business fliers to reduce some of the time involved with the process. Call your airport for details to see if it's offered. Many people have found without this option they would have missed their flight and business appointment.

What Are The Rules On Electronic Devices?

When you take advantage of the fast lane at the airport, be sure to remove your laptop computer promptly from its carrying case and put it by itself into a screening bin right away. You'll also be allowed to carry on or check camcorders, cell phones, pagers, cameras and similar electronic items although once on board the plane there may be restrictions on their use.

Do take special precautions with you camera film as the security screening equipment can cause damage to your undeveloped photos. It's always best to request the security screener to inspect your camera equipment bags by hand and bypass the X-ray scanner to avoid damage to your film.

Restrictions On Sporting Goods

As you know, business is not always conducted at the office. This is especially true on a business trip. It's very likely you play a round of golf with a client or get in some tennis for exercise while you're away from home.

Most sporting goods fall outside the carry-on size restrictions and cannot be brought on the plane with you. Items like golf clubs and ski poles are simply too large and must be checked. Other items that are potentially dangerous such as a baseball bat also must be checked. But you'll be able to pack smaller, less dangerous items such as golf balls, for example into your carry on luggage if you wish.

Packing Personal Items

Those on business trips tend to carry more personal items than other travelers since they're away from home for extended periods for work. Because they're often gone for longer periods of time they need to have everything needed for the duration of the trip.

Personal toiletry items such as creams, lotions, eye drops, cologne and mouthwash can be either checked or carried on provided they are in containers three ounces or less. Because the rules do tend to change, check with your airport if in doubt about a particular item.
