Travel Tips for the First Time Flier
By Mario G. Churchill
Since the horror of 9/11, airport security has become tighter than ever before. Every year they develop more rules about what you can and cannot take on a flight. Many of the items that could cause you to be held up by security are items that you would not think to leave out of your carry on or luggage. Some items can be packed into your luggage but not carried on the plane. Before you fly for the first time, make sure you check over these travel tips for the first time flier.

Now that you know where you want to go it’s time to work out all the little, but important, details of your trip. When to travel, what documents will you need, what tickets to book before you leave, should you reserve accommodation now or leave it until you get there, should or shouldn’t you take out travel insurance, hire a car and if so what model, size, auto or manual, which guide book/s should you take with you. How are you going to select which hotels (cost, location, amenities, etc.) to stay in, which items should you take with you and how are you going to get the stuff you buy home?

When guests arrive from the Hawaiian islands to Las Vegas and stay in our hotels and then tour vacation ownership and timeshare resorts to consider purchasing, they tell us that just because home is considered to be a “paradise” to many, they enjoy taking a break from ” paradise” and coming to the mainland, Las Vegas, especially for gambling, shopping, food, shows, and lots of fun.

Everyone travels at a different rate. What we mean by that is that some like to take it easy and calmly experience what they can while others want to see as much as they can in the shortest possible time and still others are after excitement and tons of adrenaline.
You need to be aware of the type of traveler you are and make sure you plan a holiday and choose travel companions who are of the same mind. Go to the wrong place with the wrong people and it will not be what you had hoped it would be. Can you imagine getting caught up in a white water rafting holiday down the Yukon River in mid-winter when all you wanted to do was see local native artifcats and take pictures for the bird-watching club back home?

Flying is a necessary evil if you want to get from one place to another. The level of evil you must submit to, however, is directly proportional to the class of seating you have. First class seating on a long flight is simply heaven on earth.
First class. Ah…. People feeding you grapes and fanning you with big palm leaves. Okay, maybe not. Still first class is where you find seats made for the human body and stewardesses that don’t act like French waiters. On a long flight, first class is where you want to be.

Packing is an important part of your pre-trip planning. Leaving something behind may not be important if you’re heading off to a major destination where you can probably buy what you need. But travel well off the beaten-track (where the best adventures are usually found) and you could be in trouble.
Make sure you can easily identify you luggage. You can get something that has a unique colour or tie a coloured ribbon around the handle - anything that will make your stuff stand out from the crown. It will make it far easier to find in insode a mound of like coloured black backpacks or cases.

By now you know where you’re going, when you’re off and where you’re going to be heading to and maybe even booked your accommodation. But you will still need access to more money while you’re away - there are souvenirs, entrance fees, local transport, meals, tips, coffee’s, tea and scones, etc., etc. that you will need to pay for as you travel to all these incredible places you’re planning to visit.

One very successful timeshare salesperson told me, “when you have a monthly paycheck over $10,000, you’ll be hooked on this industry forever. The income and the pace of sales can leave your breathless with excitement, or out of breath, flustered. It depends on what type of a month you are having. If you make a $10,000 paycheck, it’s easy to want to continue that pace forever.
Just as life has ups and downs, so does commission-based sales. When you are making lots of sales you can live on the adrenaline and it’s amazing. If you stop making sales, you just don’t tend to feel as excited and neither does your bank account. The key to continued success is balance.
