Pack Light, Pack Smart
We know that when you head across the country to an island in the Pacific it may seem like a long ways away and you’re probably wanting to pack every little thing imaginable but if you want to reduce stress and travel with ease then packing light is the way to go. Do you really need all those beauty products and seven pairs of shoes? Probably not. Pack only the necessities and you’ll be happy you did.
Leave Early
We sure you already know this one but who doesn’t need a healthy reminder every now and again. Leaving early for the airport is always a good idea. You never know what can happen or how long it might take you to get to your terminal so leaving early can help you relax
Travel Early or Late in the Day
This is huge if you want to avoid traffic and get the best deal on flights. Double check your flight availability and do your best to pick a time either early or later on to avoid the hustle and bustle that comes with traveling during the holidays.
