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.
10. Check back later
Travel agents and internet users can reserve flights and holidays for several
days without purchasing them. So if at first you find a deal is unavailable at
the price you want to pay, you have a choice: pay the higher price or wait a few
days to see if the places become available again.
11. Sign up for special offers by email.
Any airline or travel agent worth its reputation has a service that allows you
to hear about the deals first. Choose a few of your favourites and sign up. You
could access big savings for a few minutes' effort.
12. Go camping
The rise of the no-frills airlines has spawned a craze in ultra-low-cost
holidays. You can buy a camping kit for a family of four including tent, mats
and sleeping bags for sometimes less than £100. You book your flights to
somewhere preferably with insignificant annual rainfall and then pay a few
pounds a night to sleep under the stars. And remember: campsites abroad are
often much better equipped than those in Britain.
Rent a dream villa, self catering apartment or
luxury chateau in France direct with the owner - On offer are apartments
in Paris, luxury villas for rent in Cote d'Azur or rent a castle - the choice
is yours.

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.

40. Beware the passport photo 'scam'
The rules on passport photos are now so strict that if you use a photo booth it
may take three or four attempts, around £14, before you get two pictures that
obey all the rules on size, reflection, smile and head size. So forget the
booths and go to a photographer who specialises in passport photos. You can
refuse to pay if the pictures are no good.
41. The foreign school holiday trick
When travelling abroad, check out the timings of the school holidays in the
country you are visiting. In France, the school summer holidays end before they
do in the UK. If you can wait a few weeks longer than normal before going away
you will find that rates in holiday accommodation drop dramatically since you
are no longer in their peak period. You will need to book direct with the French
operator and make sure you have the school uniform laid out ready for school the
morning after you return.
42. Beat the fly-drive system
When taking a fly-drive holiday in Florida many of the package deals include a
'compact' car. When collecting your car from the hire desk the staff may try to
convince you to pay for an upgrade using techniques such as explaining how
uncomfortable a family of five will be in a compact car, which is a little
bigger than a Ford Escort. However, you may find you get the upgrade without
parting with any money. Americans tend not to hire compacts so the hire
companies don't have many in stock. Reject any requests for additional costs,
take the keys and go to the car lot, where hopefully you will find a much larger
car, which hasn't cost you a cent more.
