29 30 [Next] - If you are travelling overseas to visit a friend/ family member, have them research plane fares from there as well as from your departure spot. i.e.: I am visiting a friend in Malta. To buy my round-trip ticket from the States would have cost me about $2,000. My friend ordered the same tickets, but ordered them in Malta. I will be flying for $550. T Ehlers ID232 - When planning your holiday, let your travel agent know well in advance. Specials can come up very quickly that last a limited amount of time. If your travel consultant knows your dates and destinations, she can act quickly to give you a promotional fare. Lee Dalton ID577 - Some countries overseas will not accept American money; Paris and Ireland, for instance. It's very easy to have money exchanged at your local bank before leaving. There is a one time fee, regardless of how much money you order. More than one person can order together and split the fee. If you are going on pilgrimage, this should be done before you leave. You can exchange money at an airport, but it must be done individually and the lines are long. Most itineraries do not allow for time to do this. If you have an ATM card, you can get money exchanged through an ATM overseas. V. Spalding ID305 - If you have ever lost your glasses or needed emergency or even routine medical attention while you were away from home, you know how helpful it is to have your health records (your doctor's notes and test results), immunizations, allergies, medications and dosage, even familiy medical history, and personal medical history. Family Health Library can put all of that information online so that it is available from anywhere and anytime you might need it. Terry Miller ID2029 - Before going overseas, contact your local long distance company and get them to change your billing for one month to the international rate. It's very cheap and inexpensive to dial home or have your loved ones reach you. Make sure you leave your phone numbers where you will be staying and the dates at home. V.
