General Travel Tips

Here are a few tips that can help make your next trip an easy one.

Traveling by Air

*Arrive at the airport early, at least 2 hours before you flights departure time (more is even better). Airlines have the annoying tendency to overbook their most popular flights. The earlier you get to the airport and claim your boarding pass, the less likely it is that you'll find yourself with a ticket, but no seat on the plane due to overbooking.
*Never put vital medication in luggage that you plan to check in to be stored in the plane's hold. Its better to keep it on your person. You never know when your luggage will be lost, or end up on the wrong plane and you find yourself without the medication you need to remain healthy.
*Label your luggage. If you've ever stood at the carousel at any airport in the world, I'm sure you've noticed that most luggage looks alike. Labeling you luggage will not only make it easier for you to pick yours out of crowd, it will also help Airport Personnel find it more easily should it get lost.
*Remove old airline tags from your luggage. Often time we just stow our luggage away after a flight without worrying about removing the airline tags. Make sure that you remove them before your next flight. You don't want to make it easy for the airline to misplace your luggage.

Traveling by Bus

*If you plan to travel on a bus that has restroom facilities on board, choose a seat as far away from the restroom as humanly possible. Your nose will thank you.
