Even if you are taking a long flight, bring your own comfort supplies and don't rely on airline personnel to provide them. And items you may need, such as a pillow or blanket, should be packed before your flight. You should also plan to bring a few airline approved snacks along in case the airline meals are a flop.

Always go out of your way to tip any bell station and housekeeper appropriately. Generally, you will give one dollar per piece of luggage, and anywhere between two and five dollars a day for housekeeping. This will increase the quality of service in your hotel and make your stay more enjoyable.

You will pay far too much for these items, and you will not really save that much room in your luggage. Try to fold your clothes more efficiently with methods such as bundle packing. You can have more space in your bags than you thought if you pack properly.

Sort out your desintation's visa requirements as quickly as possible. You should apply for one quite a while before you travel, as they can sometimes take some time to process. Don't forget that without the right visa, you will not be able to enter some countries.

If you travel to a foreign country, it can be a good idea to bring your own bottled water. The water you find in other countries may not be safe to drink as it can cause different sicknesses. Do not forget to use bottled water for teeth brushing as well. You can also become ill from tap water.

As meaningless as this sounds, you don't want to give thieves easier access by having a room on the ground floor. Be sure to also ask for quarters which do not have sliding doors. Sliding glass doors are, unfortunately, quite easy for thieves to get open.
