Travel Stress Tips...by G. Gaynor McTigue

Always have a trip planned.

Whether it's a weekend jaunt or a world tour, the mere act of planning a future vacation is liberating, uplifting and exciting to look forward to. And you don't even have to spend money to start the process. Read up on places you'd like to go, send away for brochures, block out the time, and begin enjoying the wonderful benefits that travel offers...before, during and after. Always have an escape planned. Why make yourself crazy?

Don't overload your travel itinerary.

It's one of the biggest mistakes of recreational travel: trying to squeeze in too many cities, sites, museums, tours, events, and side trips...leaving you overwhelmed, exhausted and unable to appreciate much of anything. On your vacation! Better to limit your attractions to what you can leisurely and fully enjoy. With plenty of in-between time to linger over a meal, observe the local people, and discover things on your own...the best part of traveling anyway. Don't pressure yourself into seeing everything just to say you have. Why make yourself crazy?

If you don't need to check luggage...don't.

Are you one of those notorious over-packers? Do you feel compelled to cover yourself for just about any contingency? Does most of what you bring along return home untouched? Maybe you don't mind hauling half your wardrobe on a 2-3 day business trip or weekend getaway. But with today's long baggage check-in lines, multilevel security checks, delays at pickup carousels, and the constant threat of lost luggage...it pays to take it on board. For once, let go the urge to over-pack and see if you can't make do with just what you need—neatly tucked into a carry-on, supplemented by a purse or briefcase. Avail yourself of hotel laundry services if necessary. But once you've had a taste of the walk-on/walk-off ease of not checking luggage, you won't want to travel any other way. Why make yourself crazy?
