Gearing Up for Holiday Travel
Posted on | November 16, 2007 |
According to AAA, gas prices will be high over the next week or so with no sign of declining. Avoid Thanksgiving travel speed bumps with these top tips:
1. Fill ‘er up. Heading out on a road trip next week? Fill up on Tuesday to avoid the price hikes before or on Thanksgiving Day. Get better gas mileage…
2. Check the weather forecast for your destination.
- Local meteorologists are now putting out their feelers for next Wednesday/Thursday’s forecast (check the weather here). Keep an eye on this, especially if you’re flying. A last-minute snowstorm could cause extra delays (especially if you’re connecting! Monitor their weather patterns as well).
- Also, adjust your packing list accordingly!
3. Did I leave the stove on? Avoid these potential questions by printing out our last-minute, “hitting the road” check list.
4. Plan for “misadventures”: Print our Help - Air Travel and Help - Car Travel sections just in case you run into car trouble, flight cancellations, lost luggage, etc. You can never be too prepared!!
