Oh you already have travel insurance down - sorry!
Do you have any pets? Are they sorted? I always forget about the cat Blush

Thankyou yeah we have a dog she's staying with hubbys parents :). Sounds stupid but what do we need to get on the plane? Passports and boarding passes? Is that it or am I missing something. Been such a long time I cant remember 🙈

You can check in online and print off your boarding pass so if you just have hand luggage you can head straight to security.

Remember to check in and print boarding passes before you go. If you're taking hand luggage double check online for how much liquid etc you can take. We normally buy bottled water at the airport.

Have you got sunglasses, good book, plug adaptors, cardi or light jacket maybe for the evening?

Double check the size restrictions on hand luggage.

Check your airline rules for checking in etc and follow them exactly.

Don't forget travel adapters, chargers etc.

Remember 100ml or less of liquids allowed in hand luggage and must be packed separately in a small clear plastic bag.

You can buy water etc once you are in departures.

We've both got hold luggage too so does this effect online check in/printing boarding passes? Do we just need to drop the bags? Oo plug adaptors, need to dig those out, thankyou!

Who are you flying with?

SlothMama · 22/05/2018 09:57

You can still check in online with hold luggage, you just head to bag drop as opposed to the check in desks. With water take an empty bottle as most airports have water fountains to refill your bottle after security.

Flying with TUI

Check in online and at the airport go the drop of counters to get rid of your hold luggage.

Be careful with liquids in hand luggage, not more than 100ml bottles, not more than a total of 1l in a clear plastic bag. If you have hold luggage anyway I wouldn't worry about taking anything on board.

Do you have any medication you have to take? Over the counter ones = luggage. Any prescription in your handluggage, in the original packaging.

Euros

Menorca can be chilly at this time of year, and rainy so make sure you have a warm top and something waterproof then you can still get out and sight see if it's not nice enough for sun bathing

Packing now! Have passports, ehics, boarding passes, insurance, travel toiletries including Sun cream, underwear, bikinis, pjs, 3 evening outfits (only doing 3 nights), casual tops/dresses for days, flipflops, heels for evening. Am I missing anything??
