How to Plan a Holiday Trip

Each year, millions of people load up the family car and set out on a holiday trip. Whether it's to grandma's house, a family reunion or simply a holiday getaway, these yearly road trips can often be the source of tiredness and stress. The thought of being trapped in the car with restless children or the possibility of car trouble along the way is enough to make anyone consider staying home.1.

Plan out the route for your car trip. If you're planning on driving to your holiday destination, a little planning can help make your trip easy.2. Remember, it's likely that you won't be the only person on the road during the holidays, and traffic is always a factor. Alternate（可供选择的）routes or shortcuts can help reduce time spent in traffic jams and get you to your destination sooner.

3. Although traveling by air can be quick and convenient, it can also be much more expensive. Start planning your trip early to take advantage of advance purchase discounts. Many airlines become extremely busy during the holidays so booking in advance can also help ensure that you get the flights that you want.

Consider your luggage needs. Before you begin packing, think about how many people will be in your car and how much room they will need to travel comfortably. This could affect the number of bags that you can take along.4. Not only is the possibility of lost luggage a problem, but most airlines now charge extra for checked baggage. For a family of four, carrying a few bags each could result in several hundred dollars worth of baggage fees during your trip.5.
