Swimmers and Travellers Tips
- Leave plenty of time to get to the airport / port by the stated check-in
time. Please check your vehicle, traffic conditions and / or the running of
public transport before you leave.
- Make sure that you take all necessary documents with you and ensure that
your passport, visas, vaccinations and health requirements are up to date and
conform to local regulations.
- If you need to take regular medication, make sure you have enough with you
to last your holiday and any delays that may occur. You should also take a
spare supply packed separately from your main supply in case you lose your
first supply.
- If you are taking valuable belongings on holiday such as jewellery or a
camera you should consider covering them under your household contents
insurance. Many insurance companies agree to extend the cover to include
valuables whilst on holiday.
- Do not pack valuables, money, electrical equipment or fragile items into
check-in baggage. Keep these items with you at all times.
- Never leave your belongings unattended or with strangers, especially on
beaches or at airports, nor in vehicles.
- Carry cash only for immediate requirements and use travellers cheques or
credit cards wherever possible. Also, use safety deposit boxes if there are
available.
- Check your baggage for damage each time you reclaim it.
- We recommend that you drink bottled water whilst abroad. Even in
relatively safe places your body will not be used to the local tap water.
- Make sure you avoid ice in your drinks.
- The sun abroad can be much more powerful than you are used to at home,
particularly if you are on the water. To prevent sunburn and sunstroke, stay
out of strong sunlight and drink plenty of (bottled) water.
- Think before you dive into swimming pools and the sea. Check the depth and
for dangerous objects in the water. Do not drink alcohol and swim.

50 ways to save on your holidays
Richard Browning
SCHOOLS are clamping down on parents who take
their children on holiday during term time. At best, to get permission for even
one extra day off at either end of a holiday requires a degree of form filling
and letter writing that wouldn't be out of place in a Soviet police station.
Even then, the final decision rests on the whim of the chairman of governors.
While the difference a day makes to a child's education is unquantifiable, it
can add thousands of pounds to the price of a family holiday. But with this
option of saving money virtually outlawed, how do you stick within the rules
without breaking the bank?
Here are some examples from the article on how to save money on your holiday.

"Holiday Money" to read the holiday article in full.
7. House swap
You may think you live in a horrid, torrid suburban time warp - but to an
American visitor your home could well the quaint historic corner of Britain that
they've been yearning for. Likewise, their 'small' tumble-down hovel will
probably feel like a mansion. Give it at try.
8. Check out the special 'anti-truancy' deals
As part of the Government's Every Lesson Counts campaign to cut down on truancy,
major holiday companies have developed special deals such as free child places
and money off for adults. Ask your school for details or contact the travel
firms - but bear in mind that many of these offers may still be cheaper
elsewhere.
9. Surf for a deal
It's one of the things the internet does best. Compare flights, create your own
holidays and book online - or use it for research then phone around the High
Street chains and haggle.

22. Visit cheap countries
Sounds obvious but take Greece - once a cheap option for a family holiday.
Rampant inflation on the back of its entry to the euro and its new-found
upmarket view of itself as Olympic host and European football champions, it has
become relatively expensive. Italy on the other hand is still delightfully
reasonable.
23. Don't use the Gatwick Express
If you're travelling from central London to Gatwick airport or vice versa you
have a choice or rail operators. The non-stop Gatwick Express, which charges
around £24 one way for an adult, and the two-stop Southern service, which takes
FIVE minutes longer but costs a mere £9. Note: For the Heathrow and Stansted
Express services it's less clear cut as the alternatives, though cheaper, can be
overcrowded and therefore less reliable.

34. Control your holiday spending without doing a thing
Did you know that most credit card providers charge up to 2.75% commission every
time you use the card abroad? A similar sting applies if you use your
debit card abroad. One exception is Nationwide, which charges no such
commission.
35 Email us your tips
There are hundreds more tips for families to cut the cost of their holidays.
Send us yours and, if they're appropriate we'll add them to the list. There's a
prize for the best one.
35. Beware the mobile phone sting
Do you know how much it will cost you to make and receive mobile phone calls
abroad? Check your contract - at up to £1.49 a minute you may want to leave the
phone at home.
36. Don't use the Heathrow Express
The return rail fare for a family of five from London Paddington to Heathrow
airport is more than £130. Using the Underground and the little-known One Day
Family Travel card will set you back around £20.
