Why You Should Never Place Your Passport in Carry-On Luggage

Traveling can be stressful, and one of the biggest mistakes travelers make is placing their passport in their carry-on bags. When airlines ask passengers to gate-check their luggage due to limited space, your carry-on might end up in the cargo hold, leaving you without your passport when you need it most—at border control. This can lead to serious complications, including being denied entry into your destination country. To avoid such issues, always keep your passport in a personal item like a small bag that stays with you throughout the flight. Protect your travel documents, and ensure a smoother, more secure journey.
