High-capacity fast power bank (20,000mAh) — can I take it in the cabin?

Cabin only (never checked). Capacity in Wh = (mAh × 3.7V) / 1000 — a 20,000mAh pack is about 74Wh, inside the 100Wh limit

Insulated tumbler and a cooler bag — can I take it in the cabin?

Cabin and checked, as long as it is empty. A carbonated drink will force its way out as pressure drops — empty the flask completely before you check it

Outdoor first-aid kit (plasters, antiseptic, anti-itch gel) — can I take it in the cabin?

Cabin: yes / checked: yes (prescriptions on you). For unusual prescriptions, carry the prescription or a doctor’s note in English

Travel toiletry set — can I take it in the cabin?

Cabin: 100ml or less / checked: no limit. The limit is the container size — a 150ml bottle is taken at the checkpoint even if it is nearly empty

As of 2026-08-19

The order to pack in

Working top to bottom through a list leaves gaps. This order leaves fewer.

Documents and payment first — without these you do not board at all. Check expiry dates and balances at this step, not later.
Anything that needs charging — charge it all the night before and gather the adapters and cables next to the devices.
Separate what you will use in the cabin — once a suitcase is checked you cannot open it until arrival. Pull those items into your carry-on first.
Everything else into the suitcase — heavy items near the wheels keep it stable when you pull it upright.
Re-check only the 6 essentials at the end — going through the whole list again never happens; going through the essentials does.
