When traveling, there will be times when you feel like you don't have enough time to do everything on your schedule, and you always feel like you're missing something.

1. Queue up to check in at the airport: Arriving at the airport a few hours before your flight is essential to give yourself enough time to complete the airline procedures. The time it takes to complete procedures is completely unpredictable, but there are some tricks that can help you complete them quickly. At international airports, you can use the Global Entry service, a service that helps you complete all airline procedures in advance. You will not have to wait in line to complete immigration and customs procedures, which are very time-consuming.

2. Choose flights with transit: Usually, flights with stops will be cheaper than direct flights. However, there is a high chance that you will have to wait a long time for the flight schedule to be completed, not to mention the risks such as delays. So when booking tickets, pay attention to the schedule. Pay attention to direct flights and non-stop flights. Direct flights sometimes stop at certain airports even though you do not need to get off the plane. Non-stop flights fly straight to the destination without stopping.

3. Choose flights landing at airports far from the city:In large cities, it is completely normal for many international airports to operate in the same area. However, the distance from the airports to the city center is different. Therefore, you need to consult and learn carefully to be able to get to the airport closer to the center, thereby saving travel time, especially in cities where traffic jams often occur.

4. Choose a place to stay far from your destination:Choosing to stay in the suburbs of cities can save money, but you will have to face two problems: travel costs and travel time. You have to spend a lot of time using public transport such as buses or subways to get to your desired destination. It takes time and faces many risks such as getting lost, it is really not worth it. Spend money on renting a hotel or motel near the destination, and you will feel that your investment is worth it when you can comfortably enjoy it while avoiding unnecessary risks.

5. Go have breakfast:Having breakfast at the hotel is a great way to start the day, but it can be time-consuming. Instead of having breakfast at a restaurant, spend some time enjoying the cuisine at the place you just arrived. You will have the opportunity to eat delicious dishes and save money at the same time.

6. Queuing at popular tourist attractions: Wherever you go, you can easily see tourists lining up to visit a certain place. At famous places, visiting also means lining up. This is unavoidable, however, researching the place before arriving can give you many advantages such as booking tickets in advance, arriving very early...

7. Buy souvenirs:Gift shops are similar everywhere. It is normal to buy gifts for friends and family, but don’t waste time choosing what to buy. You have spent time and effort to get to the place you like, so spend time enjoying your time there instead of spending all day just to choose a few eye-catching items.
