Sometimes your idea of recreation travel is like playing spin the bottle. When the bottle lands, just jump in head first and drive. Whether you travel interstates, highways, or back-roads, you will be surprised at where you may end up. Drive a new road and make great memories.
For some the road trip is the only way to travel. If you're going to be taking a road trip do this simple things before hand so you don't end up stranded half way across the country. Number one, be sure to get an oil change! Number two, have your mechanic give your car a once over before you depart. The last thing you need in the middle of no where are easily preventable mechanical failures.
When taking a cruise, your health should be your number one priority. Before you depart, speak with your doctor about the trip you are planning on taking and any extra medication you may need. Let your doctor know the ports your cruise ship will visit and all modes of transportation you may encounter. Your doctor can offer advice on where you can obtain medical care as well as where you can get a prescription filled in an emergency.
Pack your prescription medications in your hand luggage to keep with you when you travel. In this way, you will not be inadvertently separated from them if your luggage is misdirected. Be sure to have your doctor document your need to do this very clearly and emphatically. Pack your prescriptions professionally in their original, factory sealed containers to avoid problems with airport security.
Frustration can occur if there are issues with your travel plans. Flights can be delayed or the right car may not be available. In these situations there are only two people who can deal with the situation, yourself and the agent you are speaking with. At the start, both of you care about resolving the issue, however, it is very easy for one of you to lose your cool. Keep calm and stay polite. You will accomplish far more this way, and your trip will be less stressful.
Don't take sleep aids until you've taken off. If you use sleep aids to help you get through a long flight, wait until after you're airborne to pop the pill. If you take them earlier, you run the risk being unbearably tired if your flight is delayed or you have to deplane and take a later flight.
