As we all know, packing up and getting ready for the flight can be a pretty stressful and time consuming.   We tend to over stress ourselves that we won't forget anything that is important and remember all the things we have to do before going on the flight.  However, through my past experiences, I have jotted down a couple of pointers on things that have a crucial impact on your trip and flight.   One important thing to do is never leave town without some cash – domestic or foreign currency! If you’re traveling within the country, make sure to hit the bank before you leave. Having pocket cash will be beneficial in case any sort of emergency comes up or for any other cash requirements when you arrive at your city/country.  Another tip is wherever destination you are going to, it is essential to do a little research.  Maps, guide books, transportation information, and any written articles or websites would be essential when you arrive at your destination so you have a heads up of the geographic aspect of your destination .   The last tip I am giving you is to check your local weather in your destination and the weather conditions throughout your time of travel.  Remember that the weather can also be inconsistent, and it is good to bring extra clothes or ammenities just in case the weather changes drastically.  Well, hope these tips are useful and stay tuned for any upcomming blogs for more tips about "Don't forget to...before your flight"!
