7 Tips for Frequent Business Travelers in India

Business travel is mostly fruitful, but a tiring ordeal and many business travelers are apprehensive about traveling so frequently to unknown territories. We give you 7 tips to make this experience more hassle-free:

1. Travel light & smart — keep your sanitary or toiletry kit handy. Dress smart, calculate and keep only required pairs of clothes. Keep weather-friendly outfits and dress according to the place, time, season and culture.

2. Carry a portable charger — Calls, emails, and entertainment can very quickly drain up your phone battery. Carrying a fully charged portable charger can help not miss those important calls and emails, preferably something compact with greater battery life and capacity.

3. Schedule smartly — With a schedule to follow and meetings to attend, you must plan smartly to optimize the time and effectiveness of your trip. Try and choose a hotel which is closer to the airport but not too far away from work, try to organize all meeting at one place, etc., so that it saves a lot of travel time. If possible, reach a night before so you get good sleep and start your next day fresh and early.

4. Frequent flyer reward — Using the same airline for all your travels does a penny for you, reaps miles for you and gives you free Business Class upgrades, to help serve you better. Many of us may have specific needs like particular food on a domestic flight or staying at the same or same chain of the hotel. One can plan when booking rather than informing after you reach.

5. Keep important documents carefully — Keep your passport and other ID’s and travel documents separately to avoid last-minute hassles.

Follow these steps to ensure a worry-free trip!
