How To Do Laundry on Vacation


Expedia.com

So, you are off in some deliciously sunny locale and you realize you need to do some laundry…

Shucks! Well, it’s not so bad…Because I always bring one small container of delicate washing detergent and one of fabric softener.

You don’t need a large container, just one like you would buy at your local superstore where the travel size beauty products are that would be perfect for traveling.

You should look for 2 tightly closing plastic bottles with a good cap on them, maybe the size of a travel mouthwash - you know, like you would put shampoo or conditioner in…

…Be sure to pack them in your luggage you check, so you don’t have a problem getting through security and be sure to put them in a Ziploc-type plastic bag, just in case they leak in your bags, it won’t be all over your clothes.

That way, whenever you need to wash your undies, bras, swimsuits or anything else, for that matter, you’ll be completely prepared.

Check out my post - How to Handwash - if you don’t know how to accomplish this task.

Tip for Rescheduling Your Flights


If you are stuck at an airport with a delayed or canceled flight, and are looking at a daunting line-up for your airline’s customer service desk that is 2 city blocks long, check out the self-serve kiosks…

I just watched 10s of flights be canceled at the Washington Dulles Airport on United Airlines…

I watched a line-up form that, seriously, from one end of terminal A to the other end.

I walked up near the desk and saw that the self-serve kiosks were not being used…So, I politely asked if anyone was waiting for them, and they all said “No”…

So, I rescheduled my canceled flight myself, and those poor people will have to stand in that line for hours, no doubt…I’m sitting at my new gate and hopefully this delayed flight won’t be canceled too, or I’ll be sleeping in the airport tonight…

Well, at least this is a great tip and could get you from Point A to Point B a whole lot quicker!

Dressing for Your Flights


When you travel on airplanes and you are deciding what to wear on your trip day, you have 2 choices, if you are not traveling for business and it doesn’t matter…

1. Go Stylish

2. Go Comfy

What do I choose, more often than not?

Comfy wins most of the time, especially if you’re traveling in winter or know your headed for inclement weather…

Why is this? Well, you are more likely to deal with delays and cancelations of your flights…You’ll be moved from terminal to terminal and gate to gate, lugging all of your carry-on bags.

Yup…not cool in stilettos…You’ll look cute in them, but you’ll hate yourself by the end of the day!

If you have to look cute, bring your pumps in your carry-on and change into them when you arrive at your destination, but keep your trusty running shoes, Crocs or sandals for travel.

Also, always bring a sweater, sweatshirt, long-sleeved shirt or light jacket with you. Sometimes planes are warm with non-operating air conditioning, and sometimes they are a freezer.

Be ready to layer your clothes for more comfortable travel!

Great Tip: Bring a pair of sockettes if you’re wearing sandals or Crocs…just in case. A pair of sockettes is so small that it will easily fit in your purse or other carry-on.

Hey…Just because you go comfy, doesn’t mean you have to wear your baggiest, house jogging pants…You know the ones…Nope…Wear a cool running suit or tights and a comfy, but stylish t-shirt.

The easiest way to go comfy, but stylish, is to go sporty!
