Road Trip Elevation Change Problems?

I will be taking a road trip from Phoenix AZ Elevation=1200' above sea level to
Santa Fe, NEW Mexico Elevation=7500', and I have noticed on past trips (not in the porsche) that everything we pack that has fluid it it like bottles of shampoo, or lotion will explode because of the difference in air pressure. I was wondering If my coolant reservoir tank might have an issue with the pressure change and possibly rupture. Anyone experience anything like this before? Thanks for the info.
