AAA Traveler Jun/Jul 2022 Colorado - 30
BY VIRGINIA BROWN
The most memorable travel experiences are often spontaneous. In some cases it used to be
a good idea to wait until the price dropped, but in today's world of travel if you wait too long
you might miss out on the best places to stay, things to do or even the dates you want to
travel. Here are a few reasons why it's a good idea to plan your travel in advance.
Popular Venues Book Fast
Many hotels, flights and experiences book up fast-especially at the most
popular destinations during peak times. Visiting the Sistine Chapel while at the
Vatican, hiking Machu Picchu or running the rapids at the Grand Canyon all
recommend far-in-advance bookings. Failure to plan for such popular
experiences well ahead of time could lead to trip disappointment.
Saves You Time
Even the best-planned trips can present surprises or snags, and sometimes
there's fun-or at least a good story-in the spontaneity. But when time is limited,
prioritization is key. The more you plan, the more time you have to map out
exactly what you'd like to do or see. Transportation gaps, long lines and holiday
closures can present headaches. Having an itinerary full of options minimizes the
likelihood you'll wind up wandering in search of a good restaurant or memorable
experience.
Your Spending Money Will Grow
Many companies require an advance deposit when you book a cruise or a tour,
with final payments not due until up to 90-days prior to your trip. That window
gives you more time to save up for your trip's incidentals and fun splurges, things
like handmade local gifts for friends and family or a last-minute tour or meal.
Some travel providers even offer discounts if you book early, such as a
percentage discount off your trip.
You'll Have Time To Get Excited
Anticipation grows with time. Last-minute bookings may be exciting, but they
can also rob you of the weeks or months of anticipation that come with
planning travel. Give yourself a longer runway to get excited about the
journey ahead.
