Travel certainly made a comeback since its temporary halt during COVID. More people have commenced taking trips for business, leisure, or other reasons.
To ensure the best travel experience possible, thorough preparation is always advisable, especially when going international. Thankfully, the following five steps will go a long way towards ensuring a smooth, stress-free journey.
Check the entry requirements of your destination
Each country has its own rules and requirements that have to be adhered to in order for foreigners to enter. Generally, this involves having a valid passport with a set number of blank pages. However, there may be other requirements.
To be fully prepared before you reach the airport, don’t hesitate to check the country you’re visiting on the US Embassy and travel.state.gov websites.
Make sure you’ll have data/internet access abroad
When you’re leaving the states, your phone plan may or may not have high-speed internet access like it does at home. Hence, you’ll want to make sure your cell service won’t suffer any interruptions once you make it to your destination.
