Readers Report : Tips from Real Travelers

written by robin

Travel_tip_tuesday

This week I decided to focus our attention on tips from our readers!

After last weeks tips on airfare, I got some great feedback from my readers on some other great sites to consult when purchasing airfare.

Terry reminded me of seatguru.com.  An excellent resource for trying to get the *best* seat on your flight.

Kathy suggests using transavia.com and flybmi.com to search for great airfare deals.

Vicki used edreams.com.  She found the best price through them for her recent ticket purchase.

Which brings me to the readers tips for this Travel Tip Tuesday.

This weeks tips were submitted by Vicki of Jacksonville, Florida. She suggested a few things to do before leaving on your trip out of the country.

Vicki said:

  • Call your credit card companies and let them know you will be traveling out of the country.  That way, when they see international charges come up, they won’t freeze your account.
  • Make copies of your passport and write your itinerary (hotels, etc) on the bottom of the copy.  Put one in each bag.  If your bag is lost, the finder, should they be so inclined, will know where to find you to return your bag.

Great idea’s Vicki!  Thanks so much for your tips!

And though it is not necessarily a tip, Susan from Israel sent me a delicious slide-show of Carnivale in Venice that I just had to share with you.  I guess the tip here would be visit Venice during Carnivale.  I can’t imagine a better advertisement.

Now readers, I ask you…what are your travel tips?

C’mon.  You know you all have them.  And I want ’em.  No, I need  ’em!!

Here is your chance to help your fellow travelers save time, money, space or headaches from the overwhelming hassle of travel.

Email your travel tips over to me at mymelange (at) yahoo (dot) net.

Until next Tuesday…..Happy Travels!
