Takeoff Essentials: The Must-Have Items for Your Carry-On Bag

‍Getting ready for a trip, whether you’re hopping on a luxury yacht charter or exploring new places, requires a bit of planning. Myst Yacht Charters, experts in luxury crewed yacht charters, know the ropes when it comes to making travel memorable. While we specialize in yacht charters, these packing tips are universal and perfect for any savvy traveler.

Versatile Scarf:

  • Spice up your travel style with a cool scarf – it’s not just for looks! Use it as a top, head wrap, blanket, or even an impromptu eye mask. This nifty accessory is a must for both practicality and comfort during your yacht charter or any adventure.

Turkish Towel:

  • The Turkish towel is a hero on any journey. It can be a cozy blanket on a cold airplane or during a breezy yacht trip. This travel essential is a game-changer for versatility.

Protein Bars:

Assorted wrapped protein bars with different flavors and designs displayed on a brown surface.
  • Snacks are a lifesaver, especially when you’re in a rush. Throw in some protein bars – they’re compact, healthy, and perfect for keeping hunger at bay during your yacht charter or on-the-go adventures.

Photocopy of Passport:

  • Keep a copy of your passport in your bag just in case. It’s a handy backup ID if your wallet goes missing. A printed copy is a good backup plan for any electronic hiccups during your yacht charter.

Carry-On Amenities Kit:

Assorted skincare products and toiletries with a white cosmetic bag on a gray background, including creams, serums, and lotions.
  • Fancy a freshen-up? Pack a mini kit with a toothbrush, makeup, face wipes, moisturizer, and lip balm. These little goodies are game-changers for a comfortable journey, whether on a yacht charter or elsewhere.

Sunscreen:

  • Don’t forget the sunscreen! A small bottle will save your skin on a sunny yacht charter or while waiting in line at customs. Keep that glow without the burn.

Rain Jacket:

  • Be ready for anything with a lightweight rain jacket. It’s perfect for unexpected showers during your yacht charter or exploring new places. Those deep pockets are a bonus for stashing your essentials.

Portable Charger:

  • Crowded yacht charters or airports are no match for a trusty power bank. You use your phone more than usual when going through the airport, pulling up boarding passes, looking for directions, or listening to music all day. Stay connected without the hassle of finding an outlet.  A must for any tech-savvy traveler.

Multi-Charging Cable:

Multi-port USB charger connected to a smartphone for efficient device charging on a wooden desk.
  • Simplify your life with a pocket-sized, multi-use charging cable. Your phone, camera, and Kindle may need to be charged at some point. No more fussing over different cords. This gadget is a savior for staying charged during your yacht charter or any other adventure.

Medications:

Nasal spray and blister packs of yellow tablets on a white background.
  • Don’t forget your meds! Unlike clothes or toiletries, these are irreplaceable. Stay healthy and comfortable during your yacht charter by having your essentials on hand. The best practice is to have the medication clearly labeled with your name and dosage.

Compact Extra Bag:

  • Love to shop while on vacation? Jewelry and art will last a lifetime, and it’s always fun to share coffee and sweets with your family and friends back home. Bring along a compact extra bag. That way, you won’t have to worry about fitting your new goodies into your luggage.
