Packing smart is your first step towards a hassle-free adventure abroad. Here's a list of ten items that should never find their way into your checked luggage. Keep these in your carry-on or leave them at home to avoid travel troubles!
1. Valuables and Important Documents
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="585" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102518/download-1024x585.png" alt="" class="wp-image-294028" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102518/download-1024x585.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102518/download-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102518/download-768x439.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102518/download-1536x878.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102518/download.png 1792w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Valuables and important documents in a travel bag. Image Generated Via Dall-E 3</figcaption></figure>
Never check in anything that you can&#8217;t afford to lose. This includes your passport, other identification documents, expensive jewelry, and electronic devices. These are items that, if lost, could not only disrupt your trip but could also be difficult and expensive to replace.
2. Medication
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="585" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102717/download-1-1024x585.png" alt="" class="wp-image-294042" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102717/download-1-1024x585.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102717/download-1-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102717/download-1-768x439.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102717/download-1-1536x878.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102717/download-1.png 1792w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Medicine in a bag. Image Generated Via Dall-E 3</figcaption></figure>
Always keep your essential medication with you in your carry-on bag. Checked luggage can occasionally be delayed or lost, and finding a pharmacy immediately upon arrival might not always be possible. It's especially critical if your medication regimen must be strictly followed. Another complication to consider, your prescription may not be valid abroad, and you may need to see a local doctor to regain access to the medicines you take regularly. 
3. All Your Clothes
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="585" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102858/download-1-1-1024x585.png" alt="" class="wp-image-294051" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102858/download-1-1-1024x585.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102858/download-1-1-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102858/download-1-1-768x439.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102858/download-1-1-1536x878.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16102858/download-1-1.png 1792w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
While it might seem convenient to pack all your outfits in one big suitcase, imagine losing all your clothes to a misplaced bag. Always pack at least one change of clothes and basic necessities in your carry-on, just in case.
4. Fragile Items
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="585" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132041/download-1-3-1024x585.png" alt="" class="wp-image-294359" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132041/download-1-3-1024x585.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132041/download-1-3-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132041/download-1-3-768x439.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132041/download-1-3-1536x878.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132041/download-1-3.png 1792w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">A traveler carrying fragile items in their hand luggage. Image Generated Via Dall-E 3</figcaption></figure>
Fragile items and your checked bag are a match made in disaster. Always carry delicate electronics, glass, or ceramics in your hand luggage, or better yet, leave them at home if they&#8217;re not essential to your trip. 
5. Travel Itineraries and Hotel Information
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="585" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16131651/download-2-1024x585.png" alt="" class="wp-image-294351" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16131651/download-2-1024x585.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16131651/download-2-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16131651/download-2-768x439.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16131651/download-2-1536x878.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16131651/download-2.png 1792w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">A world map showing important destinations. Image Generated Via Dall-E 3</figcaption></figure>
Keep your travel itinerary, hotel information, and any tour bookings readily accessible in your carry-on. Losing such information can lead to unnecessary stress and confusion upon arrival.
6. Spare Batteries and Power Banks
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="585" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132334/download-3-1024x585.png" alt="" class="wp-image-294366" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132334/download-3-1024x585.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132334/download-3-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132334/download-3-768x439.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132334/download-3-1536x878.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132334/download-3.png 1792w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">A person holding a phone and a power bank. Image Generated Via Dall-E 3</figcaption></figure>
Airlines often have strict regulations about transporting batteries in checked luggage due to fire risks. Keep your power banks and spare batteries close in your carry-on. The airline representative may specifically ask you if you have power banks in your checked luggage, if you do, you should move it to your hand luggage before it is handed over to the airline.
7. Keys
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="585" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132528/download-1-4-1024x585.png" alt="" class="wp-image-294374" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132528/download-1-4-1024x585.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132528/download-1-4-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132528/download-1-4-768x439.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132528/download-1-4-1536x878.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132528/download-1-4.png 1792w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">A man holding keys near an open bag. Image Generated Via Dall-E 3</figcaption></figure>
Imagine coming home from a long trip and realizing your house keys were in the checked bag that didn't make it back. Always keep your keys in your carry-on to avoid being locked out upon your return.
8. Food Items
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="585" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132702/download-2-1-1024x585.png" alt="" class="wp-image-294381" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132702/download-2-1-1024x585.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132702/download-2-1-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132702/download-2-1-768x439.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132702/download-2-1-1536x878.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132702/download-2-1.png 1792w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">A representative image of food packed in a travel suitcase. Image Generated Via Dall-E 3</figcaption></figure>
Certain food items might not be allowed across borders and could be confiscated if found in your checked luggage. To avoid waste and the hassle of inspections, keep food items to a minimum and familiarize yourself with the customs regulations of your destination.
9. Excessive Liquids
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="585" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132828/download-2-2-1024x585.png" alt="" class="wp-image-294389" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132828/download-2-2-1024x585.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132828/download-2-2-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132828/download-2-2-768x439.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132828/download-2-2-1536x878.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16132828/download-2-2.png 1792w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">A systematically packed suitcase. Image Generated Via Dall-E 3</figcaption></figure>
While there are limits to the amount of liquids you can bring in your carry-on, placing them in your checked luggage could lead to spills and damage to your belongings. Pack them carefully or buy them at your destination.
10. Cash and Credit Cards
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="585" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16133038/download-4-1024x585.png" alt="" class="wp-image-294396" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16133038/download-4-1024x585.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16133038/download-4-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16133038/download-4-768x439.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16133038/download-4-1536x878.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/16133038/download-4.png 1792w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Cash and Credit Cards in a travel bag.

Cullinan Therapeutics Inc&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CGEM#NASDAQ">CGEM</a>), formerly&nbsp;Cullinan Oncology Inc,&nbsp;announced its plans to expand into autoimmune diseases and intends to pursue the development of CLN-978 in autoimmune diseases, with systemic lupus erythematosus&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/04/g38266041/cullinan-therapeutics-announces-strategic-expansion-into-autoimmune-diseases" rel="noreferrer noopener">(SLE) as a first indication</a>.&nbsp;
In SLE, the immune system of the body mistakenly attacks healthy tissue.
The company believes that CLN-978 has the potential to be a first-in-class, off-the-shelf, disease-modifying treatment in autoimmune diseases with a differentiated safety profile​.&nbsp;
The company plans to submit an investigational new drug application to study CLN-978 in patients with SLE in the third quarter of 2024 and is also planning for future development in other autoimmune diseases.&nbsp;
Cullinan Therapeutics has discontinued enrollment in its B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL) study to focus ongoing development on autoimmune indications.
Recent data demonstrated the potential of CD19-directed CAR T therapies in 15 patients with autoimmune diseases.
The company shared initial clinical observations from its Phase 1 dose escalation trial of CLN-978 in B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.&nbsp;
Clinical observations from three patients treated in a Phase 1 dose escalation trial of patients with B-NHL show that CLN-978 was clinically active at the initial starting dose of 30 μg administered subcutaneously once weekly.&nbsp;
Two of the three patients experienced objective clinical benefit, including one who experienced a complete response.&nbsp;
Grade 1 cytokine release syndrome occurred in two patients, and no patients experienced immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome.&nbsp;
The company also announced a&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/04/g38265981/cullinan-therapeutics-announces-oversubscribed-280-million-private-placement" rel="noreferrer noopener">$280 million private placement</a>. The proceeds from the private placement, combined with current cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, and interest receivable, are expected to fund Cullinan&#8217;s current operating plan into 2028.
Monday,&nbsp;William Blair&nbsp;initiated coverage on Cullinan&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CGEM/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">with an Outperform rating</a>&nbsp;and a $35-per-share fair value based on the potential of the company&#8217;s diversified pipeline of assets, including CLN-619 in endometrial cancer, CLN-978 in B-cell malignancies and autoimmune diseases.
The analyst says the company&#8217;s strategy, which is flexible across different treatment methods and emphasizes developing new drugs and licensing existing ones, has led to a diverse portfolio of unique assets.&nbsp;
This approach consistently offers chances for significant value growth based on clinical results.&nbsp;
The success of zipalertinib and CLN-619 so far demonstrates the effectiveness of this strategy. With many projects, the company can focus on advancing programs that show promise as standalone treatments.
Price Action:&nbsp;CGEM shares are up 3.75% at $17.70 on the last check Tuesday.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.
