Welcome Travelers,


Spring is in the air and it’s time to travel!  If you’re flying to your destination, be sure to check with your airline about their specific carry-on & checked bag limits.  Several airlines will be charging for a 2nd checked bag starting in May, and most airlines charge for bags over 50 lbs. Be prepared & spend your travel dollars on your trip, not airline fees.  

To save valuable packing space, remember this tip:  Pack items that can be used more than one way.  For example, pack a double duty sunscreen & insect repellant in one spray.  And pack a quick drying travel towel that doubles it’s usefulness as a blanket for the plane or car if needed. You can also use it as a sarong for a swimsuit cover up.  

Most of all, remember to start with a checklist to cut down on what you take and always pack your sense of humor!

Happy Travels! 

Anne
