This year many thousands of people are going to be flying off to far flung corners of the globe to lie on sun soaked tropical beach, to trek through some of the most beautiful of the world’s wilderness areas, to see some of the wonders of the world or to simply explore new cultures and countries. And, sadly, hundreds of thousands of us will discover that the first two or three days of our vacation are taken up with trying to recover from jet lag.

But is jet lag an inescapable part of long-haul travel?

The answer to this particular depends very much on where you are flying from and to. If you begin your journey in Canberra, Australia and fly to Kobe, Japan then you are not going to experience jet lag because, even though you are traveling thousands of miles, your flight takes you due north so that both your starting point and arrival point are in the same time zone. However, if you fly from Brisbane to London, England then you will be flying east to west across ten standard time zones and will certainly experience jet lag.

Jet lag is really nothing more than the result of your body clock getting out of synchronization with local time and, while your body clock will naturally adjust itself to come into line with local time, any adjustment takes time.

If you fly over only two or three time zones then the time difference experienced will be small and you will probably not notice it greatly and your internal clock will adjust itself fairly quickly. However, if you travel over four or more time zones then the time difference will be significant and your internal clock will need more and more time to adjust as you travel across an increasing number of time zones.

In our previous example of flying from Australia to London your internal clock is going to need several days to adjust and, in the meantime, you are likely to find yourself suffering from insomnia, finding it hard to fall asleep at night and to get up in the morning, feeling tired through the day, possibly experiencing difficulty in eating with stomach upsets, nausea, a headache, dehydration, and a great deal more.

So exactly what can you do to fight jet lag?

There are numerous ‘traditional’ remedies for jet lag including jet lag diets, over-the-counter medication, sleeping pills, melatonin and much more and each has its followers and detractors, but do these so-called cures actually work?

In simple terms the answer to this question is no. These ‘traditional’ jet lag remedies are not effective and, in some cases, will actually make your jet lag worse.

Dealing with jet lag is not a question of turning to formulas and pills, but is a question of coming up with a plan focusing on your specific travel plans and lifestyle which allows you to assist your body’s natural process of adjusting its own internal clock. This means taking a series of steps before your departure, as well as en-route and at your destination. In some instances these steps are going to be enough to help you avoid jet lag completely and, in other cases, they will certainly help to reduce the effects of jet lag noticeably.

When you want to have a lot of fun on a vacation, you should choose a backpacking trip. This would offer you an excellent method to gain firsthand knowledge about any place you visit. This method of traveling is excellent for those who want to absorb the real local flavor because while traveling on foot you would see and experience things that you would otherwise miss. While this way of vacationing is excellent, you need to take extra care to ensure your personal safety.

It is true that a backpacking vacation can offer you some amazing insights about the locales you’ll be visiting. This is because you would be able to live, see and experience the real place in total detail, which you would have missed had you stayed at a comfortable made-for-tourists hotel, villa or serviced apartment. Backpacking would give you a first hand knowledge of the local customs, traditions and many amazing things that only locals know and enjoy. The best part is that since you would not be using expensive hotel reservations, you would be able to afford many more fun things during your travels.

You can have a lot of fun while on a backpacking trip as long as you are well equipped and prepared for traveling. What you need to do to ensure that you have the best time is to take care of two things; a proper travel guide and your personal safety. The guide would keep you oriented in the new location, while certain safety measures would ensure that you would be missed almost immediately, in case you find yourself in any trouble.

If you were looking for an adventure and wanted to gain some real insights about new places, then a backpacking trip would be extremely enriching. This is a method that would provide you with an opportunity to get into close contact with the local population and thereby learn about their customs, traditions and ways of living first hand. This could provide you with an amazingly unforgettable vacation. While this is an excellent way to learn about a new place, you would need to take a few precautions that would ensure your safety, such as a good travel guide and a travel companion, as well as accurate information about what to do in case of any emergency.

The holidays can be quite hectic but they are often a time when people travel to see family and friends or to take their vacation. Following these basic tips will help make sure you have the best time when you travel during this time of year. Being prepared for things to go wrong is the key in minimizing the damages and getting on with your holiday travel plans.

Make sure you have all of your tickets and confirmation numbers in a specific place. It is a good idea to make a copy of the information as well as the contact number for your tickets and place it in another location. This way if you lose the originals you will have enough information to take care of it. You should call about a week before your travel dates to make sure your reservation is still active for all modes of transportation and your accommodations.

It is common for flights, trains, and buses to get delayed over the holidays due to security issues, weather, and trying to meet the needs of the volumes of people using such modes of transportation over the holidays. Ensure you have enough of food, drinks, cash and all the necessities to get you through these delays. They can range from a couple of hours to a few days. If you will be traveling a long distance you should consider bringing with you games to pass the time, especially if you are traveling with young children.

If you bring with you prescription medications you should make sure you have them clearly labeled. You may get questioned about them if they aren’t in the bottle you picked them up at from the pharmacy. It is a good idea to have a written note from your doctor regarding the medication as well. Makes sure you have enough of it for the entire vacation including any delays that may occur.

Lost baggage is one of the biggest problems when people travel, and it happens most during the holidays because of how busy everyone is. While you really cannot always prevent your suitcase from getting lost, you can do your best to make sure you have all you need in the mean time. Remember to make sure each person traveling has their clothing in all of the luggages instead of only one luggage for each person. This way everyone will have a chance to have some items should a suitcase get lost in the shuffle.

Clearly identify your luggage so that you will be sure to get yours upon reaching your destination. Too many bags look the same and many people are in a hurry when they travel for the holidays. Place a colorful ribbon or colored tape on your bags if you carry the styles and colors that are very popular. If you travel very often you should consider a unique looking luggage that stands out.

Traveling during the holidays needs to be as smooth as possible to ensure you will enjoy your trip. By taking the time to follow these tips you can help make that happen. There are plenty of horror stories out there about people not being able to get to their destination for the holidays or they didn’t have the items they needed upon arriving. Don’t open the door for your vacation travel to fit into this grim category.

Christmas is another peak travel season, and you will find the fares get much higher the closer it gets to the 25th of December. Try to travel before the 19th in order to take advantage of the best possible fares. If you won’t be able to stay through New Year’s then choose a day in the middle of the week after Christmas.
