Are you ready to tackle a family vacation? These tips might help you to have
a more enjoyable experience. I hope you find a few that you can put to use on
your next getaway with the little ones.
(1) - Include your family in the planning process. Find out what is important to all family members and try to find a resort that will meet these expectations.
(2) - Let the kids pack a few of their favorite toys in their own small carry
on luggage.
(3) - Bring snacks and drinks on the flight, in case the little ones do not
like what is offered onboard.
(4) - Have a "meeting place" in case you get separated from each other.
(5) - Let the children take their own photos with disposable cameras, and make
a scrapbook when you return home.
(6) - Have a "souvenir allowance".
(7) - Bring plenty of extra clothes for the little ones. This could cut down
on time spent in the laundry room while on vacation.
(8) - Let each child pick a "must see" attraction.
(9) - Consider a little "grown up" alone time. Most resorts and cruises
offer child care services.
(10) - Single parents traveling with children may be asked for proof of custody.
Be prepared with copies of legal custody papers or even a simple notarized letter
from the co-parent.
(11) - Be sure to have your travel documents in an easily accessible carrier.
You will be asked to show these documents on several occasions.
(12) - Make photocopies of your itinerary, ID's and required travel documents.
(13) - Make sure all of your children, including infants have a copy of your
itinerary on their person along with the name and phone number of an emergency
contact person.
(14) - Should your flight get canceled or if you miss a connecting flight, use
your cell phone or a pay phone and call the toll free customer service number
for your airline. Often this can save you waiting in line with hundreds of other
stranded, stressed out passengers.
(15) - Pack as if you are departing the day before your actual departure date.
This will allow for a good nights sleep prior to your actual departure date.
(16) - Make a checklist of needed items and mark them off your list as you go.
(17) - Call the airline to reconfirm your flights on the day of departure to
prevent any surprises at the airport.
Make sure you have the required documents for travel. Do not start your vacation with a mad scramble to find the required documents prior to departure. If you are not sure what is required be sure to ask your travel agent or visit the U.S. Department of State site for details.
