Fact: Pre-planning contributes to peace of mind. Why not do so? Before packing the basics, get a printout of each of the reservations you have made (car, hotel, plane) which should include the conformation numbers - and place it in an accessible pocket in the outside of your carry-on luggage - not the suitcase you choose to check in - cuz unfortunately mishaps happen, and you don’t want to be stranded without your bags, or your reservations info.

Do Yourself a favor, before heading out, photocopy all your documents as in Passport, Drivers ID, Credit/Debit Cards. Should you lose any of your important docs, no need to fret, okay, maybe a little.
