Lots of Americans will be on the road this Summer, but plenty will be flying too. To better be prepared, we suggest:
Go against the flow. Take early morning flights to ensure better on-time performance — early flights are statistically more dependably on time than those later in the day.
Book nonstop flights if you can, because you don’t have to land more than once you have less of a chance of experiencing weather-related delays. If you can’t fly nonstop try and book flights through fair-weather hubs like Atlanta, Houston, or Phoenix.
If you can avoid checking baggage, do so. It will really slow you down. Plus, with new security rules regarding liquids and gels in carry-ons, airline baggage handlers are overwhelmed by increased volume, resulting in more delays and mishandled baggage.
Don’t even attempt to bring wrapped gifts in checked or carry-on luggage. Mail or ship items before your trip. FedEx, UPS, and other delivery services offer ground and two-day shipping rates that are very reasonable, or check companies like Luggage Free or Luggage Forward.

More and more women travel alone and have no particular risks or problems. However, it isn’t the same all around the world. Regardless of destination keep these tips in mind:
Be prepared. The more you know the better you will enjoy the trip.
First Aid. Always take along a small kit with painkillers, antacids, germ killers and bandages.
Travel light. The less stuff you carry, the more autonomous you can be.
Show confidence. Know where you are going and how to get there. Avoid fumbling through your belongings in public.
Try to fit in. Research the local fashion styles and dress appropriately.
Keep in Touch. Set up a planned schedule for checking in with friend or family and stick to it.

A little time spent selecting the right luggage for your trip can help avoid any disasters. We personally recommend hard cases, especially for holidays or longer trips, such as those from Samsonite, as they are a lot sturdier and far more reliable. Granted they do reduce your overall weight allowance but at least the contents will be that much safer. We recommend going for the larger size even if you think you won’t need so much space, a larger size allows unforeseen purchases to be packed without the need for buying new bags.
If you do opt for a hard case, try personalizing it a little by adding some stickers or pictures etc. That way there can be no confusion about which suitcases are yours at the luggage carousel.
Most new suitcases have combination locks. We asked a luggage handler at London’s Heathrow Airport what the most common combination was and were surprised to learn that the most common is ‘000′ which is the default combination the suitcase ships with. With this in mind you may want to consider changing the combination to something more personal to you.

Hacienda Puerta Campeche in Campeche, Mexico
Crafted from a row of colonial-era houses, the Yucatán Peninsula’s latest hacienda brings a dose of urbane style to this historic town. Most of the 15 guest rooms have a bathroom the size of a big-city apartmentand a sun-drenched daybed. Pools built between the red and yellow façades of the old manor houses flow through porticos from room to room and are capped with floating hammocks. Ask a driver to take you to the nearby ruins of Edzna. After midnight, the pyramid complex makes a perfect backdrop for an unforgettable proposal.
Casa Lisa in Los Cabos, Mexico
The Baja Peninsula’s Casa Lisa may share a shoreline with the exclusive Esperanza resort, but at this five-bedroom villa, the only person who shares your view of the pale blue sea is your partner. If snorkeling and kayaking don’t inspire you, head to the desert for horseback riding, then celebrate sunset over Land’s End with a fresh margarita. Watch your host, Ali Ordoñez, catch spiny lobsters in front of the villa and whisk them to your chef, who will serve them by candlelight in a thatched cabana.
Toronto, Ontario, Canada
The 19-room Drake Hotel combines urban elegance with a dose of the avant-garde. Check out the cityscape from the wooden rooftop, Sky Yard, which becomes an ice bar and starlit movie theater in winter; the hotel provides overstuffed parkas and hot toddies so you can keep warm while you watch. The Drake’s Pleasure Menu takes room service to the next level; frisky guests can discreetly order massage oils, how-to videos, and other intimacy kits.
Four Seasons in Whistler, British Columbia, Canada
The newest addition to the Four Seasons family in North America hugs the base of Blackcomb Mountain, just 90 miles north of Vancouver. Après-ski here means having the concierge arrange a dogsled ride through the forest to an alfresco dinner for two, served under a heated canopy.

Most college students go to somewhere in Mexico during their Spring Break. Mexico is a very popular place for college students and many times this is their first trip outside of the US. There are many things to watch for and here are the highlights of the most popular places in Mexico.
Acapulco: Drug-related violence has been increasing in Acapulco but not towards US citizens.
Cabo San Lucas: Beaches on the Pacific side are dangerous due to rip tides and rogue waves - they are clearly marked.
Cancun, Playa del Carmen and Cozumel: In this area you will need worry about crime and the undertow down at the beach.
Tijuana: Tijuana has one of the busiest land border crossings in the world.
The basics of staying safe in Mexico is to be aware of your surroundings, travel in pairs, and don’t swim where you shouldn’t. More information can be found here.

Jet lag occurs when you cross time zones and disrupt the body’s normal rhythms that help you sleep. If you have a set routine, it’s likely that you’ll suffer more than someone who adapts easily to change - babies, for example, seem barely susceptible to jet lag. Symptoms include fatigue, exhaustion, a general feeling of disorientation and the inability to sleep when the “night” comes.
Here are some times to counteract jet lag:
- Change your watch as soon as you get on the flight. Start convincing your body as soon as possible.
- If you arrive during the day, spend some time outside in the daylight. Natural light can help align your body clock.
- Try to schedule meetings or set events at times when you’re likely to have maximum energy; in the evenings after flying east, or in the mornings after flying west
- Try taking showers to adjust your body. Warm, slow showers for bedtime and quick cooler showers for morning.

Every piece of clothing you bring should complement every other item or have at least two uses (e.g., sandals double as slippers, a scarf as a shoulder wrap).
Tops: Bring two or three T-shirts (or buy overseas), one or two short-sleeved blouses, and one or two long-sleeved shirts. Long-sleeved shirts with sleeves that roll up can double as short-sleeved shirts.
Pants and shorts: Dark-colored pants don’t show dirt or wrinkles. If you bring shorts, one pair is probably enough, ideal for staying cool in a resort town or your hotel room. Few European women wear shorts. To avoid stares, consider bringing a pair of Capri pants instead.
Shoes: Bring one pair of comfortable walking shoes. European women don’t wear a lot of sneakers so if you want to fit in, consider another type of shoe. For a second pair, consider sandals or dark leather flats. Before you leave home, walk several miles in any footwear you’ll be taking to be sure they’re broken in.
Socks, underwear, pajamas, and swimsuit: Fast drying is the key because wash and wear makes for less packing. Cotton/nylon-blend socks dry faster than 100-percent cotton, which loses its softness when air-dried. Try silk, microfiber, or stretch lace underwear, which breathe more than nylon. Bring at least two bras (what if you leave one hanging over your shower rail by accident?). A sports bra can double as a hiking/sunning top. Shorts or lightweight pajama bottoms with a T-shirt will get you modestly to the bathroom down the hall. You don’t need a bikini to try sunbathing topless on European beaches — local women with one-piece bathing suits just roll down the top.
Jacket: Neutral colors (black, beige, navy) look more European than bright colors.
Accessories: Scarves give your limited wardrobe just the color it needs. They dress up your outfit, are lightweight and easy to pack, and, if purchased in Europe, make a great souvenir. Sleeveless vests and button-up cardigans can be worn alone or mixed-and-matched with other clothes to give you several different looks as well as layers for cold weather. Most women feel safe wearing engagement/wedding rings while traveling, but leave other valuable or flashy jewelry at home. A few pairs of inexpensive earrings are fun to bring.
