Business travel doesn’t have to be stressful!

Business travel vs. pleasure travel — whether it’s a relaxing vacation on the beach or a fun get-a-way with your family there is a difference. Traveling for work can be busy, stressful, lonely, long, and not always easy. We came across this article that offered Tips for Easier Business Travel.

Sleeping on planes, packing constantly for trips and staying glued to your phone can derail your routine and make you grumpy. Keeping a positive attitude is the first step to a stress-free travel experience. And acknowledge helpful staff. Travelers have a better chance at getting upgrades, itinerary changes, and extraordinary service when they ask politely and maintain happy demeanors.

Here are a few practical ways to make traveling for business easier:

• Limit Luggage to a Carry-on. Travel is stressful when you’re worried about lost luggage or being late to a meeting.
• Use Technology to Plan Ahead. Instead of calling around to restaurants at your destination, make reservations at OpenTable.com.
• Join a Rewards Program and Stick With It. If the staff notices you frequently patronize their airline, rental-car company or hotel, they are more likely to help you.
• Dress Well. Wearing an outfit that doubles as presentation attire while traveling is also wise in case your baggage is lost or you are late.
• Keep a Bag Packed. Save time packing by keeping a carry-on suitcase packed with the minimal amount of clothing, shoes, and accessories you need. Including 3-ounce toiletries in a Ziploc bag.
• Keep Customer-Service Numbers Stored in Your Phone. Keeping customer-service numbers handy offers quicker access to the right people. If a flight is canceled or you need to change a hotel or car reservation, rather than waiting in line once you’re there.
