      You will have a personal duty tax exemption on anything you have bought in the UK up to $800. If you know the total estimated value of everything you bought that will work. If the value goes above $800 then it’s going to be best to have some receipts.

      @BenDreamVacations 2 дні тому

      Are you sure you had the correct settings at the beginning? The photo setting should be passport and visa and the image setting should be 10x15cm or 4x6". If the green bars do not align then you might need to take another photo or you can try zooming in or out a little bit to help get the green bars to align. Also, make sure you are not accidently clicking on any of the ads by mistake.

      As long as your tickets were booked together your bags should get transferred over to the next plane for you. Here is the process you will need to follow. Once you arrive at terminal 2 in Mumbai you will go through immigration and customs then afterwards you can proceed towards the transfer facility. The airport staff can help guide you through the process and answer any questions that you have. You won't need to check in again or collect your checked luggage unless you have separate tickets for your domestic and international flights. After reaching the transfer facility, you'll need to go through a security check. You must undergo pre-embarkation security checks before proceeding to the domestic departure area. To get to terminal 1 you can take a free shuttle to get there. Once you arrive in terminal 1 you can go to straight to the gate, just ensure that you have your boarding pass and necessary identification documents readily available to expedite the process.

    Hello Ben, I traveled with ANA (All Nippon Airways) from CVG to PEK on June 26th. Once I arrived home and left the airport, I found my luggage to be damaged (one of the corners had a big dent). I completed the forms and submitted all of the proper documentation. However, the ANA office located in Beijing told me that they can only give me RMB 100 (around $14) as compensation. I tried asking for more but they refused to give it to me. They said the only two options I have was the RMB 100 compensation or they could give me a new luggage at the airport when I leave Beijing and check in. I am very unhappy with this and would like your input. What can I do and what are my rights as a traveler when dealing with a damaged luggage? Thank you very much, I am looking forward to your response.

    • @BenDreamVacations
      @BenDreamVacations 4 дні тому

      It really depends on the airline and their policies and I am not too familiar with ANA but most of the time the airline will require you to report the damage in person before you leave the airport in order to get a proper compensation. Unfortunately, since you didn't notice the damage until you arrived home I don't think there is much more you can do to get a proper compensation from the airline. The other thing you can do is to check your credit card that you used to pay for the flight and see if it includes travel insurance which can reimburse you for damaged luggage. Also, you can try the manufacturer of your luggage and see if they have a warranty or a lifetime warranty that you can use to replace your luggage.

    Hello, can I wear a fanny pack along with my carry-on and personal bags?

      A fanny pack would technically count as a personal item bag but it depends on how strict the airline wants to be with it. I think in most cases the airline won't take an issue with it since it doesn't take up much space. The worst case scenario would be that they ask you to put it in either your carry-on or personal bag.

    What about my grandma dentures with metal?

      It will be best to inform the security officers that your grandma has metal dentures. In most cases she will be able to go through without setting off any alarms.

    what if you have to travel with 3k cash. Where do you put it?

    • @BenDreamVacations
      @BenDreamVacations 9 днів тому

      You can either keep it in your carry-on, hold it in your hand when going through the body scanner or you can ask for a private screening room. Whichever you feel more comfortable with. Just don't keep it in your checked bag.

      Put it in the bank. Some TSA were caught on video stealing wallets containing cash. You take a chance when theyre yelling. They wouldn't even let me hold my drivers license in the madness. Hands up.

    Do metal replacement hip joints and the like trigger the detectors

    • @BenDreamVacations
      @BenDreamVacations 9 днів тому

      Yes, they will trigger an alarm. You will just need to tell the security officer that you have metal hip joints. They will determine the best way to screen you.

    So what I’m getting is that you can bring lithium ion batteries but they have to be in your carry on? And here’s what I would like to know, I’m going upstate and need to bring some tools with me, the tools I’m planning on bringing are my Milwaukee m12 hammer drill and impact driver, along with some bits as well. I would like to know if these are able to be brought and how I would package them.

    • @BenDreamVacations
      @BenDreamVacations 9 днів тому

      Drills and drill bits will have to packed in your checked bag and the batteries have to be packed in your carry-on. I would just wrap up the drill bits in something protective but the drills can be packed up however you think is best.

    I'm travelling to England in a while,and I have prescribed medicine for anemia(liquid form,not over 100ml plus tablets). I know it's not any kind of hard drugs,but I'm still extremely stressed of getting flagged. I will try to get a copy of my prescription,but still ,it seems so stressful. I'm so thankful for this video,helped lots!!

    • @BenDreamVacations

      If it's under 100ml you are really not going to have any issues. If you are going to store it in your bag of liquids you won't even need to take it out otherwise, if you are going to keep it separate then just tell the security officer that you have it. If you can keep it it's original container and it's labeled you will be just fine.

    I always look for a minimum of two hours between flights, 2.5 hours if I know that I will need to go through security and immigration (USA) before getting to the second flight.

    Is a dr note required for Inspire implanted unit for sleep apnea? How about metal knee replacement? How about an oxygen nebulizer and portable oxygen unit? Would the nebulizer count ok as a 2nd personal item in addition to carry on? Yea we’re old 🎉!

    • @BenDreamVacations
      @BenDreamVacations 10 днів тому

      A doctor's note is not required for any of the items that you mentioned. You just need to inform the TSA officer that you have these items before you get screened. A nebulizer would not count as a second personal item so you are good there.

      I always tell them before I go through that I have double knee replacements. No problems.

    What if your travelling TO the U.S. (from canada)

    • @BenDreamVacations
      @BenDreamVacations 11 днів тому

      Canada has very similar rules and regulations for their security process as in the US. There is not really much of a difference between two countries. I think the only difference is that you don't need to take off your shoes when going through security in Canada.
