Travel Medical Kit Checklist & How to Use Every Item

A smallest cut or blister can cause discomfort when traveling. Here’s where your Jetset Travel Medical Kit is the best option; it’s easy to use and easy to carry. Let’s see what are the things that we need in our aid box,

Adhesive Bandages (Assorted Sizes)

Each & every traveler kit must have bandages. The Jetset kit has multiple shapes and sizes as you need.

First clean the wound using an antiseptic wipe before applying. 

Then change daily or if the bandage gets wet. 

Gauze Pads & Medical Tape

For larger wounds or bleeding cuts, you need to use gauze pads. Use the gauze to absorb blood and protect the wound from dust or mud, it may cause infection. The Jetset travelkit has this hypoallergenic tape that sticks perfectly & easy to peel off, best for sensitive skin.

Antiseptic Wipes & Cream

Cleanliness is the first step to preventing infection. Use antiseptic wipes to clean wounds from the center outward to prevent bacteria spread. A tube of antiseptic cream is also a must in a traveling kit.

Blister Treatment (Moleskin or Hydrocolloid)

Hiking boots, city walking tours, or beach sandals, blisters happen. Apply moleskin on hot spots before blisters form, or use hydrocolloid patches for faster curing. The Jetset Travel Medical Kit has both.
