Put all travel documents, recommendations, and inspiration into a photo stream on your phone—and invite your travel buddy to it! Print copies of important travel documents. Things are lost or stolen somewhat frequently when traveling abroad, so a great backup plan is to have copies tucked away in your suitcase.”

“My life changed when I got TSA PreCheck and started only bringing a carry-on. Unless I’m going to Europe for 10 days, I don’t need a huge bag. One big rolly and one big Louis Vuitton Neverfull, and you’re set. I arrive at the airport within the same hour of takeoff, walk right through TSA PreCheck, and walk right to boarding. There’s no reason to get to the airport early without checked luggage. I don’t need airport food! I don’t need to sit in germs!

Get that TSA PreCheck—it takes five minutes! You’ll save tons of time and stress on every trip. I couldn’t care less about getting to the airport now! I stroll onto that plane.”

“Traveling a ton always presents a risk of germs and getting sick. As someone who travels a lot, I cannot take a chance on getting sick. So my travel hack is bring your own antibacterial biodegradable wipes or spray. First thing I do on the plane is wipe down my seat and anything I’ll have to touch during the flight!”

“If you get the urge to splurge on The Private Suite, you’ll never want to go back to regular travel again. It was the easiest experience ever, like a dream from beginning to end—you enter a private terminal, go through private TSA screening, and head to your own suite. When it’s time for your flight, they whisk you away in a car right on the tarmac to the airplane.”

“Stick with one airline and rack up those points and miles! I now try to fly only Delta or SkyTeam so I can attain status. Status is super important because it gives you perks like access to airport lounges around the world (free food!), complimentary upgrades to business or first class, and priority boarding. You also have access to the priority check-in counters, so if you’re running late for a flight, it saves you a bunch of time! It makes traveling that much better when you are a loyal customer to an airline because they try to make your flight experience as seamless and enjoyable as possible.”
