5/21/2019 0 Comments VACATIONING ON A BUDGETThe holiday season is about to start in full swing; whether you're going on a city break or a summer vacation, make sure you're enjoying, but also budgeting well! Everyone loves going on holiday. It's nice to get away from home, be in a new environment and explore new places, food and cultures. However, we know how expensive vacations can be. Even if you get a bargain deal on a travel package with cheap flights and hotels, the spending money out there can be more than the whole holiday. Making sure that you budget yourself throughout your holiday according to your allowance is necessary, as you don't want your finances stressing you out on your break away! RIGHT TIME, RIGHT PLACETravelling during the off-season time can cost a lot less, as prices of flights and hotels soar during the summer months. If this is the only time you can travel, it's important to book far in advance to get the best price, or taking the risk and finding a cheap last-minute deal. If you've got a more flexible schedule, travelling at the start of the year and early Autumn tends to provide you with the best offers for your vacation. plan in advanceIt can be quite overwhelming when you arrive on holiday to get as much done as you can, but planning your schedule in advance will not only help you stay more organised but also save money! You'll be able to plan your money throughout your vacation by having an understanding of what you want to do each day. Preparation is key, and having a daily budget will allow you to do just this. prioritisePrioritising what you want to get out of your vacation will help you to know where you want your money to go, as well as making sure you have enough to fulfil them all. If you want a luxury 5*holiday, it's worth saving up beforehand to make sure that you have enough to cover these needs; however, if you're more interested in exploring different cultures as well as relaxing, this will allow you to do things on the cheap abroad. understand the currencyTo avoid being ripped off, it's important to have an awareness of the currency you'll be using, so you know how much things are. Researching the average cost of excursions, trips or even dinners will help you know what you should be spending so that you're not willingly overpaying on your vacation. kellie sadlerEditor of INSYNC-MK
