Right now is the time for colds and flu to hit you and if you are anything like me … you like to go on vacations during flu season. However, there is always that chance that you are going to get sick on your vacation. That is why you have me though! I have five tips and tricks that will absolutely help you if you get sick on your vacation.
One of the first things that you need to do is make sure that you check all of your baggage, as that way you can make sure that you save your energy up. Hauling around baggage, even something as small as a laptop bag can take its toll on your when you are getting sick.
Next, make sure that you get to the pharmacy – fast. If you are stuck pre-flight, make sure that you load up on remedies before you board the flight. More tips in the next blog!
So, what are the worst — and by that, we mean the busiest — airports during the holiday? Well, if you live in the New York City area, you are pretty much SOL — JFK, La Guardia, and Newark are all going to be both busy and slow. Logan will go at a crawl, as will O’Hare, LAX, San Francisco, Atlanta, Denver, and Tacoma International.
But there is some hope, even though you may have to drive a bit to reach the closest airport that will not slow to a crawl during the long holiday weekend. Florida is a great place to find airports that aren’t crazily busy, in Jacksonville, West Palm Beach, and Fort Myers. Nashville, Richmond, Sacramento, Hartford CT, Orange County, and Cincinnati all have faster airports as well.
Thanksgiving travel is absolutely atrocious. The spirit of it is wonderful — most of us are traveling in order to spend time with family and friends, to celebrate the spirit of giving thanks — but the reality can be terrible, due to overcrowding in most major airports these days.
It can actually make a Thanksgiving trip well nigh impossible to plan, let alone execute. During the holiday weekend, travel promises to be so slow it will make snails and tortoises seem speedy.
So, we are going to try to help you out a little, thanks to help from lists compiled by Orbitz. What are we going to do? Let you know which airports promise to be the busiest and thus slowest, as well as which airports which will not be as crazy busy during the upcoming holiday.
Now then, let’s discuss some of those great locations. There are plenty in North America that will be joys to visit in the early fall, such as New England and the northeastern portion of the United States, not to mention Canada.
Believe it or not, tropical locations are very nice this time of year as well. Fiji, Aruba, Curacao, central Mexico, western Mexico, and Barbados are all great destinations. Tahiti in the South Pacific is beautiful as well.
In Europe, the climates are still comfortable in Greece, Spain, Italy, and even in France and England.
Hawaii will be a sure bet, because the weather is pretty much perfect the entire year round.
Cruise ships really cannot steer you wrong, either. They tend to follow the warmth, and the trips do not restrict themselves to September and October.
Another reason that you should choose California is the fact that golfing is very, very popular. Are you an avid golfer? Some of the best – biggest and best golf courses are located all over California! For example, Pebble Beach, Torrey Pines is one of the world-famous golf courses and it is certainly one of the best … seriously. Dan Diego alone has 92 golf courses, all of which are fantastic! So if you like golf, come to California.
Another reason that you might want to come to California is the wine. While the wine is good other places, I have to say that the wine in California is certainly some of the best – seriously. They actually make it right in California, so you truly can not get a better experience anywhere else. You can actually sample the wine straight from 60 gallon barrels, where it is kept, so that is certainly saying something!
California is the best – it is a beautiful place that holds of a lot of cities that you should be proud to see. Taking a trip to California, I know that you will have a fantastic time!
