USE TRIPIT TO MANAGE YOUR TRIP DETAILS
TripIt is a free online trip organizing tool that
takes your various itinerary details (flights, cars,
hotels, etc) and puts them all in one place.
Never search for a hotel address or flight
number again. Download it here:

3. Double Up
NEVER TAKE TOILETRIES OR CHARGERS OUT
OF YOUR SUITCASE
It's too easy to forget to pack each required
toiletry and every device charger. Buy two of
everything you need and keep one at home
and one in your travel bag.
Because there's nothing more frustrating than
getting to a hotel only to realize you now need
to run to Target.
4. Communicate Outages
LET PEOPLE KNOW YOU'RE OOO
Set expectations with your coworkers and
clients as to what your response time will be
during travel.
Let them know what backups they can contact
in case of an emergency.
5. Plan Offline Time
DOWNLOAD DOCUMENTS, EMAIL, AND
PRESENTATIONS SO YOU CAN WORK
WITHOUT WIFI
There's nothing worse than having an hour or
two to kill while traveling, no wi-fi access, and
no way to access important work.
Always make a plan of work you can do offline
before hitting the road so you can stay
productive.
