Before You Depart

Before You Depart:

A Comprehensive Palace Travel Checklist.

Preparing for a trip can often feel overwhelming, even for seasoned travelers. To help ease the
pre-travel stress.

1. Seek Advice from Your Physician:

Verify that you have received all necessary vaccinations and that your prescriptions are up to date.

2. Create Colored Copies of Your Passport:

In the event that your passport is lost or stolen, having colored copies will assist in ensuring your re-entry to your home country and proving your citizenship.

3. Provide a Duplicate of Your Passport:

For added security, leave a copy with a trusted person at home or consider storing an electronic version in your email.

4. Investigate Currency Conversion:

Familiarize yourself with the value of your destination’s currency before you travel, so you can manage your finances better.

5. Check Credit Card Compatibility:

Ensure your credit card is functional in the country you’re visiting, as many places have transitioned to chip-and-PIN technology and may not accept traditional magnetic-strip cards.

6. Maintain Local Cash Availability:

Not all establishments accept credit cards, especially for essential services like trains or buses.

7: Although there may be a fee, activating this

Feature will save you from exorbitant roaming charges.

8. Pack an Extra Outfit in Your Carry-On:

Delays and luggage issues can happen, so having a spare set of clothes on hand will keep you prepared for any mishaps.

9. Know Your Airline’s Baggage Policy:

Each airline has different rules regarding checked and carry-on bags, so familiarize yourself to avoid unexpected fees. If you have connecting flights, be sure to check the rules for those airlines as well, particularly low-cost carriers.

10. Bring Snacks:

Having small snacks handy can help stave off hunger between meals or while you search for a great local restaurant.

Use this checklist to ensure a smooth and enjoyable travel experience!
