OFTEN going on a business trip, does not mean safe. There are some habits that can interfere with the comfort and smoothness of a traveler's diva business trip. Here are three of the many bad traveling habits that should be avoided.
1. Order Short Tickets
I repeatedly got impromptu assignments out of town, so I had to order plane tickets close to the departure schedule. I personally, don't feel any problem with booking last minute. However, based on experience, The price of plane tickets with a tight flight schedule is more expensive than messages in advance. The difference can be 47 percent more expensive.
Make me, the high ticket price is a waste for the company. Not to mention if an impromptu official trip is carried out because they have to take part in an international seminar with many participants from outside the city and abroad. Diva travelers may find it difficult to find hotels close to the seminar venue.
To reduce the cost of official travel, order plane tickets in advance. Likewise with hotel reservations when going to a large-scale seminar. Place an order well in advance.
2. Forget Parking Location
During an official trip, diva travelers get a car or bus facility to get to a location. But, often forget where the vehicle was parked. Until one day, diva travelers are separated from the group and no friends can be contacted.
This habit can be avoided by photographing vehicles, vehicle license plate, and special signs such as floor numbers that are usually on parking lots.
other than that, write down the mobile number or WhatsApp of the driver or group leader. This will be very helpful when diva travelers forget the location of the vehicle parking.
3. Forgot Room Number
This is me. I like to be lazy to remember the hotel room number where to stay. I usually rely on room keys because there are room numbers listed there. So far it's safe.
Until one day I had an unpleasant incident when I was staying at a hotel in Bali. The hotel is very spacious. The receptionist was far from the room. Then, my room key lives in the room because there are colleagues in it. Once in the elevator, I suddenly remembered that I left my cellphone in the room.
Want to go back to the room, I forgot the number. Not only that. The road back to the room is confusing because the hotel is very spacious and there are many similar passages inside.
Meanwhile the receptionist, far. I had to leave the current building first to get the number information from the receptionist. Alamak! Since then, I always try to remember the hotel room number.
Of the three habits, diva travelers most often experience which?
