Four Holiday Planning Tips You Need To Know

Lewis Taxis • 23 August 2023

You’ve booked your holiday! Wherever you’re going, it is bound to be a very exciting time for you. However, holidays are not all fun and games, especially the planning. So it is always a good idea to get as much planning done as you can before you go so you don’t have to worry about it anymore.


Here are some holiday planning tips you should think about!


Research Airplane Weight Limits

Many often fall victim to the weight limit on airplanes and end up having to pay expensive fees to upgrade their baggage allowance once there. Make sure you research the weight limits for your particular ticket so you can ensure you don’t overpack. Use the scales in your home or maybe purchase a scale specifically for measuring baggage. This will allow you to see beforehand if you are over any limits.


Pack Enough Toiletries

Make sure you pack all you need for your holiday. One thing people commonly do is forget to pack enough toiletries such as sun cream. Holiday resorts or shops near popular tourist destinations might increase the prices on essentials, so be sure to stock up beforehand to prevent you from buying expensive things while abroad.


Pre Book Your Airport Taxi

Stay stress-free on the day of travel by pre-arranging your airport pickup. This will allow you to book a time that will enable you to get to the airport with plenty of time to spare without worrying about parking at the airport or using a park-and-ride service.


Arrange Your Currency

Try to arrange your currency before you travel abroad. When you get there, it can sometimes be hard to locate somewhere to change your money or you may notice the exchange rates are higher than where you left. Alternatively, you can use specific types of debit and credit cards while abroad, but make sure to research with your bank so you don’t accidentally incur charges.
