Found this on a blog for women travelers but the tips are good for everyone...Label Yourself When You Travel:
Travel Tips
Have name-cell phone number in your suitcase. Keep a copy of the itinerary on top of packed clothes. Write cell number permanently on the inside fabric of your
suitcase. Keep a copy of passport photo page in email. Same with prescriptions in the generic. Take a screen shot of relevant phone numbers and of your 24/7 emergency number.
Add your insurance company, airline and 'quick-'need phone numbers
to your contacts. If you need to call your insurer for emergencies, it is easier to have numbers pre-set, while you panic...
IMPORTANT Have airline numbers in the US and in the country where you are flying. Try both numbers; the local one might be faster.
