Airline requirements...leaving for Ireland
 

We are getting down to the wire...leaving for a two week trip to Ireland next Monday...any last minute tips for packing? Are the tinted ziplocs okay? I will look at the TSA site, but this is usually quicker and more to the point!

<<< any last minute tips for packing >>>

Have a look at what you are taking then get rid of half of it

Haven't packed anything yet..it's in my "head"...LOL!

Then clear half the contents of your head.

The problem with ditching half of the stuff is knowing which half. Be sure to keep a showerproof.

Ok..I'll bite..what's a "showerproof"?

You must live in a place that has climate rather than weather!

On many days in Ireland there is a possibility (albeit not a certainty) of rain, and one should be equipped with suitable clothing.

A very thin (tissue weight) waterproof jacket - often with a hood. Not nearly as heavy as a raincoat - and can be rolled up into a tiny ball and stuffed in a pocket.

Perhaps you should have looked at the TSA site. It woulds have been much quicker...
