Frequently Asked Questions
What should I pack for international travel?
Essential items include a universal travel adapter, appropriate clothing for the climate, toiletries in TSA-approved sizes, important documents (passport, travel insurance), a portable charger, and any medications. The specifics depend on your destination - that's where Pluggy comes in! Tell Pluggy your trip details and get a personalized list.
How does Pluggy, the AI packing assistant, work?
Pluggy uses data from 195+ countries including electrical standards, plug types, voltage, climate patterns, and cultural considerations. Just tell Pluggy where you're coming from, where you're going, how long you'll be there, and what you plan to do - and Pluggy creates a customized packing checklist with product recommendations.
Do I need a travel adapter or a voltage converter?
A travel adapter changes the physical plug shape to fit different outlets - it doesn't change voltage. A voltage converter transforms electrical current between voltages (e.g., 110V ↔ 220V). Most modern electronics (phones, laptops, tablets) are dual-voltage (100-240V) and only need an adapter. Appliances like hair dryers often need a converter too.
Is the packing list free to use?
Yes! Pluggy is completely free. We recommend products through affiliate links which help support PlugHopper at no extra cost to you. You're never required to purchase anything - the packing checklist is useful on its own.
