Some other helpful hints:

When on plane it is important to get up and walk around periodically to avoid developing deep vein thrombosis (or however it's spelled)
Also, drink plenty of fluids which can lessen effects of jet lag.

Bring disposable camera (s). You never know when your camera could stop working and there's nothing worse than not being able to take photos.

Put some sort of marking such as a ribbon on your suitcase to make it stand out. It's always difficult to pick out your luggage off the baggage carousel so may as well make it somewhat easier.

Bring nice clothing for going out at night. the kind you'd wear to going to a club or nice restaurant.


Hope that helps. I've got even more and some useful websites too.

These are some wonderful tips. I would also like to add to your list, if you don't mind...
When traveling out of the country, photo copy your passport and keep it in your suitcase in case your actual passport is lost of stolen.
