Heat is a routing problem, not a packing afterthought

Late-summer city breaks and long-haul landings punish anyone who planned a walking tour and a smile.

If you are flying with a toddler in the next six weeks, the itinerary is mornings and rooms with a door. A medina, a city centre, or São Paulo traffic at 15:00 is not cultural immersion. It is a medical plan.

Electrolytes, a hat that stays on, and a backup indoor hour belong in the cabin bag, not the hold.
