Buy batterys either at the duty free after you check-in, or cheaper
when you land.
Drink plenty of water as de-hydration can aggravate DCS.
Take a 4 way extension lead, some liveaboards are a bit short of power
sockets for recharging torches, laptops, ipods cameras etc.

Oh, and don't let a minority of mindless terrorist scum screw up your
holiday.

I went out to Hurgada the week after the Luxor attack some years
back. The locals were falling over themselves to help me and make me
welcome. If it were me, I'd not think about cancelling.

Was there at Christmas and had a great time. All the locals were very
friendly and couldn't do enough for us. I would go not just for some great
diving but also to support the local people and show you are not intimidated
by a small minority of extremists.

just come back from sharm last week.
would got back tomorrow if i could

Chances are you won't be blown up and will come back in one piece. After all there
probably won't be enough tourists there to make another attack worthwhile for some
time.
