So travel experts Blue Pillow have compiled a list that reveals which travel advice from TikTok should be taken on board and those to ignore.

One plug, five electricals

For Packing several travel adaptors when travelling abroad is common and (expensive) practice.

However, singer and influencer Tallia Storm provides an alternative as
she reveals that instead of packing several travel adaptors, just pack one adaptor and one extension lead.

Using the adaptor for your extension lead ensures that you only need one adaptor but enjoy the use of several sockets.

It will also help you out if someone is using the only available plug at the airport.

Click + collect 100ml+

When carrying hand luggage, liquids must not exceed 100ml. Any product that exceeds this limit must be bought after you pass through security.

But you can’t be certain that the airport shops will stock your preferred brands and they may be more expensive.

TikTok user Emma.mahonn has found a way to navigate this – using the click and collect option on the shopping apps, purchase the items and collect them in the store that is in the airport.

This ensures that you can carry your preferred 100ml+ goods in hand luggage and not pay airport prices.

Before using the click and collect hack, check that the store you are collecting from is on the other side of security and that it’s open at the time of your arrival.
