Stuff I would rather not do without for a couple of days, in case I get bumped or they lose my luggage:
Medications
Toiletries
Rain gear
Extra underware and shirts for two days
Extra pair of glasses
Itinerary and other paperwork (directions, accommodation reservations, etc)
One roll of toilet paper
Hat
Mosquito repellant
Sun screen
