    About this ebook

    129 Important travel tips and advice to help prevent lost or stolen luggage, avoiding common tourist scams, save you money, and staying safe on your travels.

    Advice for travel can be found all over the Internet, from friends and travel agencies, government websites, as well as airlines. The problem is not a shortage of information, but an overload of information. Wasting time sifting through numerous tips that in most cases have no relevance to you, often leaves you frustrated while at the same time possibly causing you to forget the actual advice you do need.

    This book focuses on tips that will make your flight smoother, help you to not be a victim of baggage theft or become another statistic of lost luggage, help you clear customs easier, stay out of trouble and jail for things you may not think you can get jailed for, as well as help you not to fall victim to crime on your travels.

    If only one tip helps to save you from being robbed, your bank account emptied, your passport stolen, you jailed for life or executed, or help to make your travels go smoother, then the purchase of the book was a bargain.

      Introduction

      This book contains 129 important travel tips, as well as advice that will help you save money, avoid common tourist scams, stay safe, and keep you out of trouble with the local law.

      Travel advice can be found on the Internet, friends, travel agencies, government websites, and airlines. The problem is not a shortage of information, but an overload of information. Wasting time sifting through numerous tips, which in most cases have no relevance to you, can often leave you frustrated. It may also cause you to forget what you were searching for and the actual advice you need.

      This book does not contain general tips; such as remembering to have the post office hold your mail or finding someone to look after your plants. Rather, the advice focuses on tips that will make your flight smoother, help you avoid becoming a victim of lost or stolen baggage, and stay out of jail for any number of reasons. You’ll learn how to clear customs more easily and how to stay free from scams and common crimes.

      The relevancy of advice is linked to where and how you travel, in addition to your own travel experience. To advise on a broad range of travel scenarios, it cannot be helped that not all advice will pertain to all readers. However, if only one tip saves you from being robbed, your bank account emptied, your passport stolen, you jailed for life or executed, or help to make your travels go smoother, then the aim of the book was reached and the purchase of the book was a bargain. Realize that no number of tips are a substitute for planning your trip, using common sense, and being vigilant for possible tourist scams.
