Biggest Travel Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

By Preetam Banerjee | Jul 24, 2018

Regardless of whether it's your first outing abroad or you've been going for a considerable length of time, we are humans and often make errors in planning when we go travel. This can lead to things that can become troublesome and in extreme cases, the trip can become marginally ruined through the entire course of the time. Here are the greatest travel mistakes you can make and how to stay away from them. Not only while traveling abroad, these mistakes can occur while we are traveling within our country too:OverpackingIt's enticing to bring outfits for each conceivable event, however, it makes it hard to pull your luggage around, and you may get charged with high baggage fees in the airports. You may think that you should pack and be set up for all weather conditions and events; however, you need to think rationally. You would prefer not to carry a bulky, heavy luggage around. Pack like a local and only keep what you think you truly require. Not Checking Your Cell Phone PlanIts vital to know whether your plan covers the area to avoid excess data roaming fees. Not covered? Not in service? Turn offyour data as soon as you get on the plane and keep your phone in the airplane mode (youll still be able to hook on to the Wi-fi on the plane). If having an internet connection all the time is important to you, then buy an international plan or get a local SIMcard after you land. Not Planning Enough Time in Between FlightsFlight conditions are mostly irregular. If you are delayed, you will be forced to hurry through a foreign airport to make your linking flight, and still, you may not make it in time. Its always best to book them with a good time gap in between. If you are traveling through the primary hub then plan to keep at least a two-hour layover there since you may have to go through another security check just to get to your connecting flight.Not Exchanging Some Local Currency at the AirportWhen you leave the airplane terminal, you'll require local currency to use public transportation or taxi rides in various nations. Taking out cash from the airport terminal's ATMs gives you better exchange rates, so get what you require from there, and also try to take some additional for crises. We use our credit card whenever possible, but we always keep cash on hand. Visiting local markets is a must when we travel and many of these places dont accept credit cards.Mobile phone batteryThis is a huge travel mistake. We do so much these days on our mobile phones when were on a trip. Weve got our social media accounts to look at, weve got all the amazing pictures to take and weve got maps to look at to find our way to the next tourist attraction. Unless youve got some sort of superphone, theres a good chance that your battery will die fairly quickly after all that, especially, if you add music on the plane, on the bus or in the car.We all love holidays and trips away but were all guilty of making mistakes too. But this often comes down to being careless or ill-prepared so wevecompiled this list of the top travel mistakes, in the hopes you can avoid some of them on your next vacationadventure!
