Discover a new place can be stressful and amazing at the same time. Plan ahead, using these travel tips, and get the most out of your next trip!

When you arrive in a new hotel room, let the hot water run in the shower for a little while. Even the nicest of hotels can be somewhat dirty. Letting the hot water run will help kill spores that the regular cleaning might have missed. You aren’t paying for the water bill in the room anyway.

To help you avoid paying excess airline baggage fees on your return trip, when you are more likely to have souvenirs to bring home, pack old clothing and shoes that you might want to give away. Then, when you are packing to come home, you can leave or donate the old clothing and shoes to make room in your luggage if necessary.

To save money on your vacation, choose a hotel that offers rooms with an en-suite kitchen or kitchenette. Even a simple refrigerator can save you big bucks if, instead of paying for the pricy hotel breakfast buffet, you pick up some cereal, milk, and yogurt to eat in your room.

One of the easiest, most effective and affordable ways to offset the unflattering aftermath of jet lag, is to drink plenty of water. Being dehydrated can cause you to feel light-headed, dizzy and fatigued, upon landing. Seasoned travelers report that drinking at least four eight-ounce glasses of water over a five-hour trip, can make a noticeable difference.

Traveling is a memorable experience but not one you want to recall by bringing bedbugs home in your luggage. Not even four-star hotels are exempt from the presence of these invasive insects, so give your room a thorough investigation before bringing your luggage into it. Search the entire room for signs of the bugs, their fecal matter and tiny rust-colored stains. If a bedbug infestation appears likely, it is wise to move to another hotel.

Business travel can seem overwhelming when you are on a budget. If you know you will be traveling for work often, make sure to have your travel plans done in advance. This will include all payments that need to be made while you are away. Planning ahead will help you to not worry the whole time you are gone.

Traveling with children is very different than traveling alone or with adults. Young children in general do not have the social skills to always behave as they should. Be patient with children, bring along a lot of healthy snacks and even a few unhealthy ones to help their temperament. Be sure to have lots of easily accessible activities handy as well. Try to avoid travel when your child is extremely sick if at all possible.

While traveling, it is important to keep your home safe while you are away and it will be empty. To reduce the chances of someone thinking your house is empty and easy pickings, you should have a trusted person tend the house. That person can get newspapers, mail and even move the cars around that may be in the driveway. Most importantly, they will mask that the house is empty.

If you suffer any sinus related issues, bring a cotton surgical mask along for your flight. The recirculated air in airplanes can wreak havoc on your sinuses plus it is a good place for germs to colonize. Wearing these masks can greatly reduce discomfort and ensure a more pleasant flight.

By remembering the tips in this guide, you will surely be able to discover new and exciting things on your vacation. You will find that if you follow these tips it will be the best vacation you have ever had.
