Plan what to do if travel goes wrong.

Destinations: [list]
Bookings: [package / separate flight+hotel]
Insurance: [yes/no]
Emergency contacts at home: [names]

Ask me up to 3 short questions first if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers.

Then:
1. If flight delayed/cancelled — steps and what to screenshot.
2. If luggage delayed — steps.
3. If we need consular help — point to FCDO/GOV.UK in general terms.
4. A one-page contacts sheet layout.

Only use what I've told you, leave blanks for anything I haven't given, and don't invent facts, prices, opening hours or bookings. Rules change, so don't state entry, visa or passport rules as certain — mark each 'check' and point me to GOV.UK foreign travel advice (and the passport/renew pages) so I confirm myself. This is planning help, not immigration or travel insurance advice. UK English.

For FCDO support for British nationals abroad on GOV.UK, use web search and name the page you used. If it doesn't search on its own, open View all tools and choose Search.

Stay in this ChatGPT chat. Do not turn on apps or connectors, and do not use memory from another chat.
