CAA South Central Ontario (CAA SCO) is reminding travellers to seek advice early and make a hol- iday checklist. Start by protecting your home: - Unplug appliances like coffee makers and toasters to ensure they don't spark a fire while you are away. - Don't leave keys on a hook by the door, this is the first place thieves look and your car could be stolen in addition to precious house- hold items. - Ensure all windows and doors are closed and securely locked. - Suspend newspaper sub- scriptions and ask a friend, neighbour or relative to col- lect your mail. - Don't broadcast your travel plans on social media. What to pack: - Travel size toiletries - Neck pillow and sleep mask - Practical travel clothes - Travel first aid kit - Tablet loaded with favourite books, movies and games - Chargers and adapters for your electronics - RFID safe wallet - Passport and travel documents For all your travel gear, visit a CAA Travel Store near you. Before leaving for the airport: - Review your airline's pol- icies for check in and carry- on luggage fees. - Check in online and print your boarding passes at home. Arrive early for your flight to avoid long lineups. - For carry -on items, make sure all liquid bottles are a maximum of 100 ml and fit into a 1 L clear plastic bag. If your vacation plans take you outside of the province or the country, be sure to make travel insurance a part of your travel plans. OHIP coverage may not cover you outside of Ontario. Provin- cial health plans cover approximately 9 per cent of medical expenses when trav- elling outside of Canada.* Clinton News Record
