Business travel is one of those
things you either love or hate. It can be incredibly stressful having to pack,
wake up early and wait in lines for the plane or taking the train, if it is a
local travel. However, it does not have to be so stressful! We have collated
some of the best advice we have seen on how to make business travel enjoyable and
easy going.
Try to fit
everything in one suitcase
Packing everything in one
suitcase will make you more efficient with what you pack. It also means if your
trip requires a plane journey, you don’t have to check in any luggage, which
will save more time.

Pack a digital
luggage scale with you when travelling
This comes in handy when you know
you probably will buy some extra things on your travels and don’t want to pay
extra for going over the baggage limit. With this with you, you can make sure
that your luggage is under the limit as you’re going and then when you’re
coming back, you can make sure that you have not exceeded. This saves time
having to unpack at the airport if you have gone over and saves money if you
pay instead.

Make sure all
your devices are charged the night before you travel
This one is quite self-explanatory.
Nothing is worse than travelling and realising your phone or tablet is nearly
dead and you don’t have any nearby socket to charge it! To be on the safe side,
because you may not have time in the morning, make sure all your devices are on
100%. In addition, buy a good power bank or portable charger so that you can
take that along too and take the necessary electrical plug adaptors.

Make a
checklist of everything you need
Nothing is worse than knowing you
have forgot something important and not being able to go back to get it! To
avoid forgetting anything, always write a list of everything you need and tick
it off as you pack, if you organise your packing too in designated sections,
you can also do a quick overhead check in the morning to double-check
everything is there.

Have a
semi-pre packed bag at hand
Keeping some essentials in your
travel bag is a good way to minimise packing time and the potential to forget
anything important. It’s a good idea to keep travel size toiletries and some
basics like underwear, socks and face towels so that the only other things you
need to pack are clothes, gadgets etc.

Buy food or pack something in
advance
Especially if you’re journey is
on the train. Save money by buying food in advance to eat. The prices on the train
tend to be expensive. Plus, if you have special dietary needs, options may be
limited, so to be on the safe side, buy or make your own.
