Stress-Free Vacation
by Joy Ross, Travel Journeys
Planning on taking a vacation soon and just don’t have the hours it takes to do the research? With all the millions of choices how do you know which is the best VALUE for your Romantic Getaway, Honeymoon or Family Vacation?
Tip #1 - For a Stress Free Vacation, it is better to use an experienced Travel Agent to plan your vacation especially, when traveling out of the country. Travel Agents are trained experts at what they do. They are kept up to date on hotels, resorts and ships in the Niches we specialize in. And, here’s the best part about using most Travel Agents; it doesn’t cost any more to use one. In fact, Travel Journeys can often save you money and get you an excellent package that can include everything into one price. For busy people, this is a huge savings on time and money!
Tip #2 - Make a packing list of things you will need. If you list things you will need day-by-day, you are less likely to over pack. Research now says rolling your clothes saves space and cuts down on wrinkles. Packing cubes helps a lot.
Tip #3 - Put all your electric chargers or head- phones in a special “electronics bag” or baggie so everything is in one spot. Keep it with you in your carry-on.
Tip #4 - Make photocopies of important docu- ments (passport, credit card) and keep separate from your original.
Tip #5 - Buy a luggage scale and take it with you; there is nothing worse than getting to the airport and paying for an overweight bag fee.
Tip #6 – When coming back into the United States, you will speed through customs if you have your passport downloaded onto your phone with the Mobile Passport Customs App. The Mobile Pass- port app can be used at most major gateways and 1 cruise port with more being added.
