Losing a bag in transit or misplacing important travel documents can be a real nightmare. Even more nightmarish: falling ill during a trip. God forbid this happens, but if it does, here are some useful tips and advice.

Travel documents are the one thing that you need to keep most securely when travelling anywhere. There is no sense in getting into a panic mode. Instead, take preventive measures before you travel and know how to get help when you lose the documents in transit somewhere.

Quite a few travellers have had the horrendous experience of losing bags, even all their luggage while flying. Even in cases where there is no stopover to catch a connecting flight and it is a straight flight from one point to another, this problem has occurred. It is thus a good idea to follow some very basic steps before and during losing bags in transit.
