filled snacks that are grossly overpriced.

Have you ever thought of traveling overseas? You might want to hold on toyour traveling plans for awhile and go to farther and distant lands. Instead oftaking two trips a year you can manage go on one trip for a year. Just makesure you keep an eye out for deals because you might get a really good deal

on hotel and flight tickets.

Consider attaching small bells to your carry-on bag. If you are worried thatsomeone might steal or tamper with your luggage during a flight, attach bellsto it. Inexpensive, Christmas jingle bells will do nicely. The noise is likely to

deter criminals. If not, the noise will draw your attention.

Are you traveling with your pet? Make sure their immunizations are up to dateand you have the papers proving it! Also, don't forget the essentials like food,water, leash and bedding. Tucking in a favorite toy or two always helps ease

the boredom and helps keep them quite when you really don't want themdisturbing the occupants in the next room.

If you are staying at a hotel while traveling, be sure to figure out where all ofthe emergency exits are located. You never know when there might be a firedrill or even a fire. Your map reading skills aren't going to be at their best

when you are woken by the alarm at 4 AM, so it's better to know in advance.

If you're going on a cruise, make sure you pack a power strip with you. Mostrooms aboard cruise ships will only have one (maybe two) power outlets. Ifyou have multiple devices that will need to be plugged, in you'll be glad you

brought a power strip instead of fighting over outlets.

money with you so that you do not risk losing much.

Bring your own comfort items on the plane. With airlines trying to recoupcosts wherever they can while keeping ticket prices low, many have resorted

to charging for many of the comfort items that used to be free. A travelpillow, blanket, music and headphones can save you precious money that is

better spent on your vacation.

As you make your travel arrangements, negotiate with the front desk at thehotel you would like to stay at. Do not necessarily request a lower rate

because managers do not often change the price of their rooms. Instead, tryto arrange for other perks, including a free breakfast or an upgraded room.

You can also ask if they have any other packages or special offers.
