| Reserve house and pet sitters early for the holidays |
Many families will travel out of town for the holidays. Some
will take the roads and some will go by air. No matter which way you and your
family travel, Forbes Living TV shares some reminders to keep handy.
Who will take care of the house, mail and family pets while
you are away? Now is the time to reserve the best caretakers for these valuable
assets. Be sure to add some buffer time to the schedule to allow for delayed
flights or heavy traffic congestion. Add an extra day to the schedule, if
needed. Make a list of what needs to be done daily.
Families who are taking flights out of town should consider
downloading movies on tablets or digital devices a week or more before the
flight departs. Sometimes the download is slow even on a fast connection. The same applies for adding apps and especially
those related for travel.
If special meals, such as a gluten-free one, are needed for
family members, place that request when reserving the flight and seats. If the
reservation is already made, call the airline and add the request well in
advance of the flight.
Forbes Living TV also suggests checking the baggage
restrictions for all connecting flights. Your checked suitcase may be too big
and heavy for the regional airline connection to the destination point. Know
before you go.
With a little advance planning, a family holiday trip can go
smoothly. Why leave some things to chance?
