The snow has started to fall in Utah. What about where you are? Be prepared for whatever Mother Nature, or the nature of your trip, might throw at you by following these travel tips: Educate yourself regarding immigration practices, health conditions, political disturbances, currency and entry regulations as well as crime and security information for the countries to which youll be traveling. Have phone numbers for everything: your hotel, your car rental agency, your airline, your destination. Put all contact numbers in your cell phone or on a piece of paper in your wallet or purse for easy access in case of delay or emergency. Get to the airport early: Most airports recommend arriving 2 hours early to ensure a smooth and timely transition through security. Use unique tags: Use unique luggage or luggage tags so you can easily see your bag coming on the baggage carousel rather than having to check every non-descript black bag that goes by. Or, write your last name on the handle of your luggage with a liquid white-out pen. Pack wisely: Try to fit everything into your carry-on if possible. This makes for an easy transition during layovers and reduces the chance of lost luggage. Bring activities to occupy the kids (and yourself): Books, magazines, an MP3 player, some healthy snacks — whatever you need to keep the kids occupied if you encounter delays or long layovers.
