Travelling might be the best thing to do especially after a wedding or a promotion. Moreover with the festive season spreading its glory far and wide, people are travelling to various destinations; either to catch up with loved ones or to capture a glimpse of a beautiful spot in their minds’ thresholds. However with our lives becoming more disaster prone, safety is a prime concern for even the shortest of trips. 

There are a few basic travelers’ tips that people must keep in mind before they say goodbye to their loved ones. The first most important thing to do is to sign into the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program, in order to aid the State Department in better assistance. This proves helpful in case of an emergency or a crisis while traveling. 
 
It is also recommended to fill up the emergency information form while signing the passport. The passport should be valid and duly signed. 
 
To meet any unpredicted exigency, it is also advisable to keep copies of passport and itinerary with family members, this will help them locate you easily if anything wrong occurs.
 
Another vital task before moving out for a trip especially abroad is to check with the insurance company about overseas coverage. 
 
However traveling need not be a completely panicky situation. Especially if it is a honeymoon trip, safety first; but other things too need to be taken care of. Planning a tentative budget and registration with a reputed honeymoon travel agent is also an important thing to do. 
 
For any kind of trip, right and light packing is yet another vital thing. While an adventure trip might require you to pack the right clothes and shoes, a romantic getaway would on the other hand require you to pack minimum, permitting enough space for souvenirs that you might pick up. 
 
While on a romantic cruise tipping is a good idea to steal away some cozy moments and it is better to watch others from the ship while everyone else is ashore!

Rising gas prices, air fares, hotel rates… bills, bills, bills… But none of these are keeping travelers off the roads to get their much deserved vacation. According to the triple-A, around 35 million Americans traveled during the Memorial Day weekend – A hundred thousand more than last year’s. The number only says that there’s no stopping the common American from hitting the road to take a break. But how does one cope with all the spending to make sure that there’s enough left to go back to the normal life they left off? How does one prepare for traveling and avoiding hassles during and after their vacation?

Hotel rates are up between 5 and 10 percent.; Airfares, 14 percent; a gallon of gas? More than a $ 1 higher than last year. So what’s an American to do? Here are a few tips:

1. Awareness of Peak Travel Day Fees – Peak travel day fees are applied when there is a higher demand. These hidden travel fees increase the price of your flight, especially during the months of June, July, and August. During these months, every day is almost considered as a “peak” day. And the only way to avoid it? – postpone your vacation until the end of the summer, which is quite a hassle since you don’t want to ruin your kids’ summer vacation.

2. Bargains — There are lots of cheap travel packages going to the Caribbean, Cancun and Las Vegas during the summer months.

3. Travel Tips from CBP – They say that people who read fast get ahead. This might be true, except for some information that you really need to remember and digest like the tips from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Here are some CBP tips that you should remember before you go:

a. Have all the required travel documents for the countries you’re visiting. To add, identification for re-entry to the U.S. Passports are also required for re-entry.

b. Declare everything you are bringing in from abroad. This includes items that are bought in a duty free shop as these items are also subject to U.S. duty fees and other restrictions.

c. Be cautious when buying something from a street vendor. Some merchandise can be classified as counterfeit or unsafe and you may have to surrender it to the CBP when you get home.

d. Know that things bought abroad for personal use or as gifts are eligible for duty exemptions. But if you’re going to resell them, they are not eligible.

e. Have a quick look at the list of prohibited merchandise (such as ivory, tortoise shell, absinthe, and counterfeit items) and restricted merchandise.

f. Be aware that many foreign-made meds are not FDA-approved. You cannot bring these meds into the U.S. Also remember that, when traveling abroad, bring only the amount of medication that you’re going to use during your trip.

g. Cuban-made products are a big no-no.

h. Don’t bring any food into the U.S. without checking to see if it’s permitted. To add, exotic pets like live birds, whether it’s for your personal use or for commercial use, may be restricted and/or quarantined.

i. You also have to remember that CBP officers can inspect you and your belongings without a warrant. This may include your luggage, vehicle, and personal searches. This is meant to enforce U.S. laws as well as protect legitimate travelers.

4. Maintain Your Tires – Most people would opt to go on a road trip instead of flying, so a good advice to take is to check if your tires are properly inflated. Estimates show that U.S. motorists could save up to 700 million gallons of gas each year just by maintaining their tires properly. To add, tuning-up and putting the correct motor oil in your car can improve fuel efficiency by up to 4 percent.

5. Find a Cheap Vacation Rental — Looking for a cheap vacation rental near your intended destination can save you money, especially if you’re going out with a large group. Instead of booking a hotel during peak season, try to look for a vacation rental that has all the amenities that you need.
