Can I bring jewellery in my carry-on?


Absolutely! Your carry-on luggage is not just a place to store your clothes and essentials; it's also the perfect spot to keep your precious jewellery close throughout your journey. When your jewellery is tucked away safely in your carry-on, you can travel with peace of mind, knowing that your beloved gems are right by your side and protected from loss or theft.


To take your jewellery protection to the next level, consider investing in a travel jewellery case. These compact and stylish cases are designed specifically to keep your baubles safe and secure while you're on the go. With padded compartments and secure closures, a travel jewellery case ensures that your jewellery stays untangled and easy to access during your travels, whether you're jet-setting across the globe or simply heading out for a weekend getaway.


Not only do travel jewellery cases provide practical protection for your jewellery, but they also add a touch of elegance and sophistication to your travel accessories. With a variety of styles and designs to choose from, you can find a travel jewellery case that perfectly complements your personal style and makes a stylish statement wherever your travels take you.


Much Jewellery Is Too Much?


There isn't a specific limit on how much jewellery you can take through an airport with you, however, it's essential to consider a few factors to ensure a smooth experience:


Security Screening:


When passing through airport security, you may be required to remove any jewellery, including watches, necklaces, bracelets, and earrings, and place them in a bin for screening. Having excessive amounts of jewellery can slow down the screening process and may lead to additional scrutiny from security personnel.


Safety and Security:


Carrying valuable jewellery in your carry-on luggage or on your person can attract unwanted attention and increase the risk of theft or loss. Consider the value of the jewellery you're traveling with and whether it's necessary to bring it along on your trip.


Personal Comfort: Wearing excessive amounts of jewellery can be uncomfortable, especially during long flights or layovers. Consider packing only the jewellery you plan to wear during your trip and leaving the rest at home to avoid unnecessary hassle and discomfort.


Ultimately, the amount of jewellery you should take through an airport with you depends on your personal preferences, travel itinerary, and security considerations. It's always a good idea to pack wisely and prioritize comfort, convenience, and safety when traveling with jewellery.



Where should I pack my jewellery when flying?


When it comes to packing bling for air travel, a travel jewellery case is your best friend. Say goodbye to knotted necklaces and misplaced earrings! These cases are designed to keep your jewellery secure, organized, and oh-so-chic. With dedicated spaces for each piece, you'll never have to rummage through your bag for that perfect accessory again.

For the most part, yes! Your favourite gold, silver, and platinum pieces are unlikely to cause a stir at security. Feel free to rock those rings, earrings, necklaces, and bracelets with confidence. Just steer clear of anything oversized or overly metallic to avoid setting off alarms.

In fact, most airlines actually recommends keeping your jewellery on (minus the bulky stuff) to breeze through security like a pro. It's a win-win situation – you stay stylish and streamline your airport experience.


Do you have to remove jewellery through airport security?


For the most part, nope! Your dainty pieces should sail through security without a hitch. But if you're sporting anything bulky or metal-heavy, it's best to stow them away in your carry-on beforehand. Remember, pockets are a no-go zone for jewellery – trust me, those metal detectors have eagle eyes!


Do earrings set off airport security?


Not usually. Unless you're donning some seriously hefty earrings, you shouldn't have any issues. Stick to smaller studs or elegant dangles, and you're good to go.


How do you travel with expensive jewellery?


Here's the deal – if you can, leave the pricey bling at home. Travelling with valuable jewellery is a recipe for stress, not to mention a potential target for sticky fingers. But if you simply can't part with your treasures, take heed of these tips:


  1. Get it insured – better safe than sorry!

  2. Take inventory and snap some pics for insurance purposes.

  3. Keep it locked up tight when you're not wearing it – a travel jewellery case or hotel safe works wonders.

  4. Stay low-key to avoid attracting unwanted attention.

Absolutely! Opt for subtle, non-metallic pieces to breeze through security hassle-free. And if you're itching to switch up your look mid-flight, stash your bling in a travel jewellery case for safekeeping. After all, who says you can't sparkle at 30,000 feet?




A Little Bit Of Holiday Care...A Few Personal Tips


Ditch Your Jewellery Before Getting Wet


Indeed, it's essential to exercise caution when it comes to wearing jewellery in water, especially when it comes to chlorinated pools. Chlorine, a common disinfectant used in pools, can be particularly harsh on jewellery, causing it to lose its shine and lustre over time.

One of the main concerns with wearing jewellery in chlorinated water is the potential for damage to the metal and gemstones. Chlorine can react with certain metals, such as silver, gold, and platinum, causing them to tarnish or corrode. Additionally, prolonged exposure to chlorine can weaken the settings of gemstones, increasing the risk of them becoming loose or even falling out.


To protect your jewellery from damage, it's best to remove it before immersing yourself in water, whether you're swimming in a pool, soaking in a hot tub, or taking a shower. By taking off your jewellery before entering the water, you can help preserve its beauty and prolong its lifespan.


If you forget to remove your jewellery before swimming and it comes into contact with chlorinated water, be sure to rinse it thoroughly with clean water afterward to remove any traces of chlorine. You can also gently clean your jewellery with a mild soap and warm water to help restore its shine and remove any residue.


In addition to avoiding chlorinated pools, it's also advisable to remove your jewellery before engaging in other water activities, such as washing dishes or applying sunscreen. Chemicals and abrasives found in these substances can also cause damage to your jewellery over time.

By taking proper care of your jewellery and avoiding exposure to harsh chemicals like chlorine, you can help ensure that your pieces retain their beauty and sparkle for years to come. So before you take a dip in the pool, remember to take off your jewellery and keep it safe and dry on the side lines.

Maintaining Your Jewellery While Traveling


During your holiday adventures, sunscreens, oils, water, and even hand sanitizers can take a toll on your jewellery, leaving it looking less than its best. Keeping your jewellery clean is key to preserving its brilliance.

I suggest popping a small soft jewellery cleaning cloth in with your treasures, to just give them the occasional wipe over!

Jewellery cloths are very in expensive. You can also purchase these on amazon in a pack of twenty cloths for as little as £2.99, or you may have one, some jewellery you have purchased may have come with one of these little magic cloths.


And Lastly, Enjoy Your Holiday!


As you prepare to take flight on your holiday adventure, armed with your favourite jewellery pieces, remember the invaluable tips shared in this ClawaBear guide. From packing your treasures securely in a travel jewellery case to navigating airport security with ease, we've covered all the essentials to ensure your jewellery shines as brightly as your holiday spirit.
