Splash into Science WorldStrides Florida What & How to Pack!

Packing suggestions: Plan to put your full name on all personal items. Don’t over pack! A common mistake is to take too many clothes and unnecessary toiletries, etc.

You must be able to carry your own luggage. Usually one suitcase and a backpack are sufficient. Don’t over pack your backpack!! It needs to fit under your plane seat.

Be sure to follow the TSA restrictions on the amount of liquids or gels that can be packed in carry-on bags. You can bring one single 1-quart-sized ziptop clear plastic bag with 3.4-ounce bottles or less.

Maximum 3.4 oz. containers
