  • Alert your credit card company and bank about your travel dates and locations. There are many banks and credit card companies that deny charges in popular foreign locations without prior information of travel plans. 
  • Pay off all utility bills especially if you are on a month long holiday trip (or even more). Arrange for pre-payment of mortgage or rents, and other utilities. This will prevent utilities from shutting-off.
  • Make sure you carry all important travel documents including passport, driving license, and medical insurance cards. Confirm your reservations and if possible opt in for e-tickets rather than paper tickets. Check your credit cards are working and do take a listing of 800 numbers to call in case of theft or loss.
