The Queen doesn't bring a passport. She isn't required to have one herself because she issues it.

MEDICINE FOR JET LAG

Her Majesty is the most traveled monarch in U.K. history, so it's not surprising that she has needed to come up with a system to beat jet lag.

The Queen always brings barley sugar candies since sweets can adjust the body clock to another place by helping the blood sugar match the eating schedule in the destination.

BLACK CLOTHES

On the off chance that tragedy strikes, Queen Elizabeth always makes sure to pack a black outfit.
