Be sure a loved one has access to the itinerary of your trip. This is a great tip because it ensures that a non-traveler is always aware of where you are and what you are doing.

In addition, regularly call, text or email that family member so they know everything is okay with you.

Avoid Rush Hour Traffic

If traveling by car, it is important to avoid rush hour traffic. If you can’t plan your trip where you won’t be driving during rush hour, use that time to stop for a break and just enjoy the fresh air, get a snack or allow the kids some exercise.

Visa or No Visa

Determine if you will need a visa to visit your destination. Visas often have a lengthy processing time so you should apply for them as soon an you are thinking of travel. Sometimes you may not be allowed to enter certain countries without a visa.

Go Green

Go green on your next trip by securing services that are responsible to the environment and your safety in the midst of social distancing and otherwise. Many hotels used to reuse lines but because of COVID-19 they have found other ways to keep costs down, as well as keep their customers safe. They still use energy-efficient lighting and offer recycling bins for their guests, use low-flow plumbing and alternative energy sources. When you know where to look, you can find many ways to stay green even when you are on the road.
