The Christmas vacations are just around the corner and millions of Italians will be on the road. There are those who fly in the heat and those who prefer classic destinations such as New York City. In any case, let me remind you of three simple staples that cannot be missed when traveling away from home.
#1 Travel/accident insurance.
In this article:
I am not talking about what low-cost carriers, and non-low-cost carriers, try to sell us every time we book a ticket. I'm talking about coverage that can protect over the course of the vacation both from unforeseen events such as a lost luggage or a canceled flight, but also and especially in case of an accident, illness or other emergency. A cold in the U.S. can cost thousands of dollars, An accident in Japan on the streets of Tokyo Likewise.
Even when traveling to cheaper destinations, such as Thailand or Indonesia, it is crazy That of traveling without coverage that costs a few tens of euros, but which protects the traveler in case of unforeseen events. If you then do not want to buy just be American Express Platinum holders and take advantage of the insurance coverage included in the monthly fee, coverage that covers the owner and the whole family from any unforeseen circumstances.
#2 An eSim to avoid a nightmarish bill
Technology not only saves money, but also protects against scams. Avoiding taking a sim at the airport, leaving one's documents open to prying eyes is a good and right thing. To TFC readers I recommend Airalo, a very powerful app that allows you to have sims for every corner of the world, but also sims that can work in multiple countries.
That way if you travel between Vietnam and Indonesia. Between Dubai and Muscat or between Argentina and Mexico you will only need to buy one eSim and use it throughout your vacation. Using TFC15 new customers get 15% discount on the first eSim, and with TFC10 you will get discount on all subsequent purchases.
#3 the apps for peaceful travel
I dedicated an article to the apps I use when I fly, among the indispensable ones is definitely App in the Air, which is free and allows you to keep track of the flight at all stages. From opening the check-in, to the gate , to checking the plane in flight. The great thing about this app is that, it is free, but it also allows you to "play" with friends to see who flies the most, keeps track of all airports, companies and planes used.
In conclusion
There would be many other things to remember, but these are the most immediate ones to put on the todo list. Not forgetting to give a Checked on the passport and its "status."
