    Travel arrangements are preparations for journey plans for making a trip.

    Whether you are booking an exotic vacation or business trip, making travel arrangements can be a
    chore. It takes time to find the best prices and coordinate logistics through each step of your journey.
    Thankfully, there are numerous resources on the Internet where simultaneous booking of flights, rental
    cars and hotels is easy. It may take a bit of planning, but making the correct travel arrangements before
    leaving is one more way to ensure a smooth trip.

    STEP 1

    Choose the exact destination of your trip. Determine the exact addresses of where you will be going.
    Will you be traveling to multiple locations? Are there multiple airports?
    STEP 2

    Choose your ideal travel dates based on the activities you plan to do. If attending a busines s meeting
    or conference, consider flying into town the day before to allow plenty of time for preparation. If
    vacationing, think about the typical weather during the dates you wish to travel. The Caribbean is
    rocked by hurricanes from June to November and can put a damper on vacation plans.
    STEP 3

    Book air, rail or ground transportation at least three weeks in advance of travel. Compare flights online
    through Websites like Travelocity.com or Expedia.com. Will you need a rental car upon arrival?
    Arrange additional transportation needed upon arrival through the same Websites. Also, take
    advantage of any frequent flyer miles you may have earned in the past.
    STEP 4

    Make living accommodations two weeks before arrival. Hotels and hostels require booking prior to
    arrival and often ask for a credit card to hold the reservation. Other less formal accommodations, such
    as motels or guests houses, can be sought out upon arrival. Check Couchsurfing.com for free board in
    the homes of volunteer hosts.
    STEP 5

    Plan activities for the duration of your stay. Purchase tickets for tours, concerts and plays one week in
    advance to ensure availability. Research tourist attractions before ar rival in travel guides, such as
    Fodor’s or Lonely Planet.
    STEP 6

    Make arrangements for while you are away. Depending on the length of your stay, you may need a
    friend to look after your house and/or pets and collect mail. Be sure these arrangements are set at least
    one week before you leave.
    STEP 7
    Gather all necessary travel documents before departure. Depending on destinations this may include
    tickets, photo identification, passport and immunization records. These should be packed in your carry-
    on luggage and made easily accessible.

    TIPS
    1. Leave emergency phone numbers where you can be reached with a family member or friend.
    2. Notify your credit card company that you will be traveling and making purchases in a new location.
    3. When making travel arrangements for others, be sure to follow all company policies and procedures.
    4. International travel may require specific immunizations to enter the country. Check with the country’s
    embassy before you leave for specific medical requirements.
    5. When making travel arrangements for others, be sure to follow all company policies and procedures.
    6. International travel may require specific immunizations to enter the country. Check with the country’s
    embassy before you leave for specific medical requirements.

    Your itinerary should include:

    1. Details about your travel arrangements.


    2. Information about your stay with addresses and contact number of hotels.
    3. Details about your sight seeing.
    4. Your home address and contact numbers.
    5. Always keep a copy of your itinerary with you so that you are never at a loss what to do next.
