Blog Post - Travel alerts - who should I call and why.
|
You've booked the flights and hotel, packed everything you need from bathing suits to running shoes, and set up someone to house sit and take care of the pets - you've covered all your bases for the start of an amazing vacation, right?! Almost! Setting up your finances prior to shuttling off to the airport requires some work. A short cash supply and a frozen credit/debit card during your trip can put a damper on your vacation really quick so make sure you take care of these before departing!
