Top Tips

• Start applying for your travel visa at least a month in advance – while many countries approve a visa within a week, it can take longer if something goes wrong or if extra information is required
• Travel vaccinations and medications are often not paid for by public health bodies or health insurance – it is a good idea to factor the costs into your travel budget
• Airline baggage rules often change – Think about what to pack and make sure to check what you are allowed before buying your tickets, especially for short haul flights.
