Introduction
Your itinerary is in order, your luggage is packed, and you have said good-bye to your family. What is next? Have you forgotten something? What is the best way to travel as a businessperson?

The following article seeks to address pressing questions that the business traveler may ponder. Read what we have to offer.

1. Don’t pack more than you will need. Take that Hawaiian shirt out of your leather luggage; you will not be needing it for this winter trip to Chicago!

1. If you are one to carry many metal items: keys, pens, coins, phone, glasses case, etc., put them in your jacket pocket, and then put the jacket on the conveyor belt at security to save time.
   

1. Take a pass on the alcohol and peanuts on the plane. Be healthy. Opt for water (hydration is important) and fruit.

1. If your flight is long, eat before you go rather than during the flight.

1. If you are visiting a different time zone, try to acclimate yourself as soon as possible. You can start on the plane; take advantage of your travel pillow and readjust your sleep cycle.

1. Would you like to do some reading, but continue to get interrupted by the ranting child a few aisles down? Use your earplugs.

1. Pre-book your seats. Print and keep the confirmation in your ticket organizer.

1. Always pack your laptop with your carry-on luggage. We have heard of quite a few computers making their own trips to the repair shop for being tucked away with the hold luggage.

1. Use a waist pack to hold our tickets, wallet, pens, memo book, etc.
   

• If you are traveling abroad, it is always good to bring your own adaptor with you to use with your cell phone, laptop, etc.
