Check the dates of the reviews that you are reading about your potential destination. Many things change with time, and a review that was written long ago may not be as accurate as you need it to be to make a sound judgment as to whether to visit or not.

If you are traveling to another country brush up on that country’s laws. Some foreign countries have laws that you might view as a little strange or not expect. As a precaution, it is always a good idea to familiarize yourself with the laws specific to the place you are visiting.

If you plan on taking an extended trip, you should look for ways to save money around the house during your prolonged absence. Some cable and utility providers will allow you to place temporary holds on your account for a brief period of time, during which you will not be charged monthly fees.

If you’re heading to a beach destination, pack your toiletries in a cooler bag. When you get to your destination you can unpack your toiletries and use the bag to keep your beverages cold while on the beach. This is also a space saver over packing both a cooler and toiletry bag in your suitcase.

When planning to fly for a trip, don’t forget any frequent flier miles you might have racked up. It does you no good to hang onto those once you’ve already gone on your big vacation. Even if you don’t have enough miles to cover the whole trip, many airlines will allow you to discount your rate using your miles.

If you are a woman traveling overnight on business, be sure that the blouses and underthings you wear and bring can be washed in the sink and hung up or blow-dried. Missed luggage and/or connections can mean you arrive at a hotel late at night, with only the clothes on your back to wear the next day. Lightweight, wrinkle-free polyester or microfiber blouses and tops can be washed and hung up, and will be dry in the morning, as will all your lingerie.

When traveling by car, be sure to have a well-prepared emergency kit on hand. You should carry a change of comfortable clothes, including good shoes and socks for walking, a towel, a blanket, a good first-aid kit, a source of fire, and a gallon or two of water. In this way, you will be ready for breakdowns, accidents and injuries.

When traveling by air, you may not want to sit in a seat that doesn’t recline. These seats are usually the exit-row seats. Also, if you prefer a window seat so that you can gaze out, you will want to avoid the windowless “window” seats, which are typically located just in front of the wing.

Check your hotel bill to make sure that you are not being overcharged. If you see charges on your bill that you do not recognize, ask the desk clerk about them. Such charges may be erroneous. Some hotels try to add extra charges with no warning, but if you object, they may remove those charges.

In conclusion, there are many tips that can easily be followed to optimize your traveling experience. By learning and memorizing these tips, you have learned that there are things about traveling that you never even knew. Just remember, vacations are about fun, so first and foremost, relax and enjoy yourself!
