How to Avoid Unwelcome Surprises When Traveling The family vacation. A time of relaxation and rest, but too often also a time of stress and mishaps. The internet is full of horror stories that depict travel going wrong. Fortunately, by taking some pre-vacation precautions, you can make sure that you won't end up on a TV show about the worst travel experiences. Do your research
Where do you want to travel? What is the best way to get there? How about the best hotels? Planning a successful vacation shouldn't stop after answering the first of these questions. Sometimes, taking a car is more advantageous than air travel. Especially when traveling with a person with special needs, research becomes paramount. Will our hotel accommodate all of our needs? What do we have to know about the airport terminal at which we will spend time during our layover? Many hotels and most airport terminals now have the right accommodations for all needs. The key is choosing the route and hotel that best suits your family. Pack for all occasions The only predictable aspect of the weather is that it's unpredictable. Even the most sunny spots will get rain once in a while and when that happens, you'll be glad to have packed those rain coats. Getting rain when expecting sun is relatively harmless, but not packing for all possibilities can get more serious as well. Medication, even if only needed in emergencies, should always be a part of your suitcase - you never know when those situations may arise. The result of packing for all occasions may result in heavier luggage, but you'll be glad of it should the unlikely situation arise. Keep a sense of humor And yet, even taking these precautions sometimes is not enough to avoid the worst travel experiences. In that case (and provided they're not too serious), it's important to keep your bearings and a sense of humor. Even a lost luggage or getting lost in an airport can become a good story later on; if it happens early in the vacation, you may still be able to salvage most of the trip provided you don't give up on positivity.
