While many people choose to stay in—or close to—their Gainesville FL home during this busy season, a large number of folks travel via plane, train, or car to celebrate with family and friends. To maximize holiday travel happiness and minimize coal-in-the-stocking disappointment, follow these basic but helpful tips compiled by ASTA (American Society of Travel Agents) as they reveal secrets that will help you and your family arrive at Grandma’s house full of holiday cheer.
Before leaving:
Packing light saves time and energy when it comes to filling the trunk with fragile bags packed with gifts or racing to fill the last empty space in the overhead bin.
Be sure to secure your Gainesville FL home. Lock all doors and windows, and don’t forget to set the alarm.
Also, give your home that lived-in look to repel potential burglars by having a friend collect your mail, setting lights on timers, and omitting details of your trip on the answering machine.
Air travel:
If possible, have a friend drive you to the airport, or take a shuttle or public transportation.
Take the worry of getting to the airport completely out of the equation by staying at an airport hotel the night before an early flight.
As flights are sometimes overbooked during the holidays, it’s critical to check in early. Domestic travelers should arrive at the airport at least two hours prior to departure, while international travelers should arrive at least three hours in advance.
Remember that delays can occur. Bring water and snacks, an inflatable pillow, a good book, your favorite CDs, MP3 player, and a deck of cards to help pass the idle time.
