Ticker’s Top Tips of travelling these holidays

Published

on

At last, the world is beginning to open up again, and what perfect timing for travellers to finally reunite with loved ones abroad and celebrate the holidays this year

But with borders opening up and eager travellers ever so keen to jump on a plane, there’s a catch with the new ways of travelling as the COVID-19 pandemic changed how we travel to be unlike how it once was. 

So here are some hot tips to make sure you can make the most of your upcoming travel plans in today’s world.

Tip 1: Do Your Research

There was a time when researching just meant finding the best attractions and places to dine and stay, but the pandemic has added additional considerations.

As everywhere deals with their own version of the pandemic, it’s important to be aware of the COVID situation in both your current location and your desired destination. 

This means checking the latest local and foreign government and health advice to find out what rules and restrictions apply to you.

Tip 2: The Importance of COVID Travel Insurance

Booking travel insurance is perhaps more important than ever. 

Finding the right insurance that considers covid-related expenses will give you peace of mind when travelling to ensure that you don’t get stranded or without medical assistance should anything covid related happen to you abroad.

Tip 3: Arrive Early at the Airport

If you’re planning on travelling by air, try to arrive early! 

Airports and airlines in the US alone reported last Friday to be their busiest day since the pandemic as millions of Americans rush to see their loved ones for Thanksgiving.

This is all despite a major cut in staff during the pandemic which saw around 50% of employees 

This proves that it’s unlikely you’ll be the only one trying to get back home to your loved ones these holidays, so expect long lines and long times.

Some say 2 and a half hours is the new ideal standard to make sure you end up on your flight, leaving enough time for you to check in and wait in likely lengthy lines. 

Tip 4: Plan your driving routes

With everyone escaping to see their loved ones for the holidays it’s not just the airports that will be busy, but the roads too!

Considering traffic is expected to be 40% higher these holidays, try to plan your trip wisely to avoid delays and jams.

Avoiding peak travel times will ensure you get to your loved ones in time for your holiday celebrations!
