Traveling during the holidays can be hectic, stressful, and costly. Luckily for you, we have some holiday travel tips to help you have a more bearable traveling experience.
Book your tickets…Incognito.
When you visit airline or travel websites, they often use cookies to track your visits. This helps them alter (usually increase) their prices accordingly. Instead, use private or incognito mode when booking tickets so you get the best deal without preconceived prices.
Don’t get stuck in a no-window seat.
Most airlines allow you to choose your seat at checkout, however, you can go a step further. SeatGuru gives you the layout of the plane you will be flying on with specific information on leg room, under-seat storage, and more.
Breeze through security (and email).
You can sign up for TSA PreCheck – $85 for five years. This will help you get through security faster at more than 150 U.S. airports. You can also subscribe to Boingo for $5 a month and gain Wi-Fi access at more than 30 domestic airports. Extra perk: if you’re an American Express Platinum cardholder, you are eligible for free accounts.
Take your skin-care routine to go.
Don’t forfeit your beauty regimen just because you’re traveling. Stock up on travel sized portions of your favorite products to keep your skin glowing and refreshed.
Wrap wisely.
Unfortunately, the TSA has the authority to open gift-wrapped packages (even the ones in your checked luggage), so avoid the hassle and don’t travel with wrapped gifts. Instead, have your gifts shipped to your destination, or simply travel with them unwrapped and wrap them when you arrive.
Discover the key to endless battery life.
Are all the outlets taken? Don’t fret – If there is a big television in sight and within reach, they usually have USB ports on the back, allowing you to charge when the outlets are unavailable.
Bring yourself some libations.
Would you like a drink to enjoy on the plane, but want to avoid the overpriced ones on the plane? Opt for the Carry-On Cocktail kit, which IS TSA-approved and comes with everything you’ll need.
