Important things to carry with you while travelling to Austria.
*Kindly read whole document
carefully.
*you can add or exclude things
according to your requirement.
Checklist of things to Purchase
from PAKISTAN
Important Points:
Go to the market with planning
and keep this list with you while shopping. Check the allowed weight of luggage
from your airline before having things (20 or 25 or 33Kg & 7Kg Handbag).
Try to have just 2 bags, 1 big (30Kg Max.capacity) and 1 shoulder/college bag
.Be careful about your luggage, documents and money while traveling you can
have theft chance at airports or Stations.
Try to come in Austria from
Monday to Thursday as mostly people go on leave from Friday noon to Sunday
night and nobody from university or hostel will help you on weekends. It is
also better if you can reach here in day time (optional but not a big problem).
Before coming here, you must have telephone numbers of concerned persons in
your pocket and the person who have your room keys. You must tell him regarding
your flight so that on arrival, you can get keys from him.
This is general list of things,
but you can bring things according to your need and usage. In Austria
everything is available but more expensive than in Pakistan.

This is very important thing
while travelling to anywhere. Check allowed weight from your airline. Normally
it is: one bag of 23 Kg, one hand carry up to 8 kg and one shoulder bag. Saudia
Airlines offers weight up to 46 Kg (2*23 Kg) it is additional benefit. Please
keep your laptop and all documents in your shoulder bag.
