If going international, apply for visa
If you are planning to go on an international trip, apply for visa as soon as possible, as your whole itinerary will be relying on your visa status. Search online about the documents required and submit the application along with a genuine copy of documents and wait for the visa to get approval.

Pack your bag
Take only the necessary items along with you. Select clothes according to the weather of the place you travelling to. Don’t forget to bring your mobile phone charger, power bank, camera, shoes or flip flops, fast aid box, repellent etc. and necessary documents. Unnecessary loading will cost you a lot at the airport while check-in your luggage.
Aim for the off season
Traveling to any location during off season may save you a hefty amount of money. You are way more likely to score a deal. Even, during off season, you will face less rush, thus making flights and hotels available for you and that too at a low rate.
