· Make sure your Passport has at least 6 months validity when you return home to NZ

· Travel Insurance – don’t leave home without it.  Leave expensive jewellery and items at home.

· Consider if you are flying Business Class, Premium Economy or Economy Class on your flights.  Pre-seat on the flights with your consultant as soon as possible.

· If you are booking a cruise let our consultant guide you as to the best position on the ship to suit your needs and budget

· When possible, eat where the locals do – always the best experience

· Avoid over packing. Make sure you can Mix and Match your clothes. Keep that Suitcase weight to a minimum, remembering you are the one that must carry it.
