14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 [Next] - When you're far from home and you've run out of room for gifts in your suitcase: Go to a resale/charity shop and buy an extra small suitcase. 1-Jan-2000 A. Hoffman ID1245 - After using a roll of film, number the roll and the canister (1, 2, 3, etc.) with a permanent marker. This is helpful in knowing which rolls have been used. Then when having the film developed, write the number on the envelope. This will keep the photos in chronological order - which helps in identifying photos based on your itinerary. Numbering video tapes is a good idea, too. 22-Apr-2001 Lisa Eckhardt ID114 - Use packages when traveling to a new location. Package rates are often much more favourable than rates quoted when you show up at a hotel door with a suitcase. 1-Jan-2000 Gower House Bed and Breakfast, St. John's Newfoundland, Canada ID1274 - When on a long, multi-stop trip, take a photo of that part of your itinerary before heading out for sightseeing. Then, when the pictures are returned, you'll know exactly from which part of your journey they were taken - that day's/location's itineray will precede each set of pictures. 22-Apr-2001 Jan Haniffy ID153 - If staying in a chain operated hotel and service is unacceptable, and if the local manager refuses to accommodate reasonable requests or compensate for your suffering/discomfort, contact the headquarters of the hotel chain (can usually find their phone # by dialing Directory Assistance) and present the matter to headquarters. I did this when I was put in a filthy hotel room and the only option the local manager gave me (after validating that my room was filthy), was to transfer me to another room within the same hotel which turned out to be just as dirty (manager validated this as well but had no other options). I called headquarters that night (2 am) and they arranged hotel accommodations at one of their other (higher end) hotels nearby at the rate of the lower end hotel (with the dirty rooms), and gave me one night free of charge. Because they were helpful in resolving the problem immediately, I continue to patronize this hotel chain. 21-Apr-2001 Janie Wagner ID44 Would You Like to Add a Travel Tip?We welcome QUALITY travel tips from our users.Note: you will be required to enter the characters from a security image, so please make sure that you have your browser set to view images.
