Travelling abroad with a laptop
hey,

kinda a strange question but as most of you know i am shortly (March) travelling to singapore and i need to take my laptop with me. Anyone know if it is safe to stick it in my suitcase or should i take it in my hand luggage??

Common sense says hand luggage but i don't need it on the plane and i don't really wanna carry it about if i can help it...

any experiences? or advice??

cheers

I don't have laptop and I don't plan to be on plane any time soon, so it's not really
relevant for me - however, sounds like you better keep it as close to you as possible.
and if possible you can enjoy it while on your way instead of watching the movies.
