Make certain that you get and fill out the form on the plane ✈️.

Put in passport on photo page.

Keep safe I put in top pocket of my shirt 👚 and transfer to small zip compartment on my carry on rucksack 🎒.

Keep cash safe and carry it safe never loose sight of either. Crisp English notes get the best exchange rate but do not use Airport booths.

Carry a card for emergencies keep in safe in your room with passport and cash 💰 in the room safe if you get one.

Do not stick it under your pillow !!!

My mother had all cash jewelry and passports stolen from under her pillow by an intruder while she was sleeping !!!

Happy Landings

Happy 😊Stay
