Travel tips

Travel Reservations: Confirm and double check all your travel reservations -- from airline tickets, hotel accommodations to rental cars -- for dates, times and any special requests.

Basic Medical Kit: Bring along basic essentials such as painkillers, antacids, antidecongestants and bandages. Depending on where you are going and the nature of the trip, you may want to include motion sickness pills and sunscreen.

Security Procedures: Check with the airport you are departing from for their current security procedures. Make sure and allow yourself enough time to get through all the security checkpoints.

Money: It is much safer to carry traveler's checks instead of cash. You may also want to consider increasing your line of credit on your credit card in case of an emergency.

Weather Check: Check the weather forecast ahead of time and pack accordingly.

Eyeglasses/Contact Lenses: If you wear either of these, bring along an extra pair in case of an emergency.

Medical Check: Visit your doctor at least one month before departure for a check-up and pre-medical advice on necessary vaccinations required if you are traveling out of the country. If you have a severe medical condition, make sure it is stable and don't forget to bring enough medication to cover you while you're away.

Passport: Don't forget this valuable document if you are traveling out of the country. Make sure it doesn't expire before you go. Leave a copy at home and take another copy with you, but store it in a different location than your original passport.

Note: On Jan. 1, 2007, federal law will require all individuals, regardless of national origin, to possess valid passports if traveling internationally by air or sea (cruises), including to and from Bermuda, Canada, Mexico, Panama and points in the Caribbean (where drivers' licenses and birth certificates had previously been sufficient). Passports will be required for all forms of international travel, including over land, beginning on Jan. 1, 2008.

 

 

PLEASE NOTE

Effective immediately, WorldTek (Golf Industry Travel) will assess a $20 service charge for each airline ticket issued. The service charge is being assessed to cover the cost associated with making and processing airline reservations.

Many agencies are charging up to $45 and more. This new policy will apply to all ticketing through them. The charge will be separately noted on the bottom of each ticket.
