Safety tip DON’T KEEP YOUR WALLET/PURSE IN YOUR JEANS’ BACK POCKET

To avoid being pickpocketed, keep your wallet in your front pocket, especially a pocket that can be buttoned up. Best of all, use the inside pocket of your jacket. There are also a load of different ‘money belts’ (see examples here) that either hang inside your shirt or wrap around your waist (under your shirt), etc. Make sure it’s waterproof because travelling can often be sweaty/perspiringwork. I’d advise against the bum bag/fanny pack varieties. There is no better way to advertise the fact that you have a load of valuables on you…and, of course, they were never ever cool.

Seven Seas Explorer when it launches next year

The Regent Suite (sleeps two), will grace Seven Seas Explorer when it launches next year and will measure a staggering 3,875ft²/360m² – almost four times the size of an average family home (1,042ft²/97m²).
It comes complete with a spa retreat, a first at sea, with a sauna, steam room and treatment area. It will also have two elegant bedrooms one with a wall of windows, and a sprawling living room with a custom-made Steinway Arabesque piano designed by Dakota Jackson.

The suite will be located near the top of the ship overlooking the bow, and will have an outdoor, glass-enclosed sitting area called the Vista Garden, to take advantage of the 270 degree view of the ship’s bow and over the horizon.

What will you do if your ferry is cancelled

The recent industrial action by French crew at Brittany Ferries left the entire fleet unoperational and caused havoc for travellers and companies that rely on shipping their goods between England, France and Spain.

Cancellations can be caused by adverse weather conditions and technical failures. If the seas are stormy, ferries may be pulled or delayed for safety reasons.

Christopher Jones, press officer at Brittany Ferries, comments: “Our  Portsmouth – Cherbourg service is operated by catamaran, the Normandie Express. This type are not permitted to operate when the wave height exceeds 3.5m. During recent bad weather, we therefore suspended this service and re-routed passengers onto our Portsmouth-Caen service.”

How to Save Money While Traveling

Just because you splurged on the trip, doesn’t mean you have to sit in your hotel room the whole time. With a little bit of work ahead of time, you can escape the resort without breaking the bank. Here are four easy ways that you can save money while traveling:

Sign Up For Local Deals – about a month or two before you travel to a new city, sign up for local deals in that city through Groupon, Amazon Local, and other similar sites. They’ll often have discounts on everything from zoo passes and concert tickets to skydiving and massages.
Join The Mailing List – if you have your heart set on a local museum or attraction, see if they have an email mailing list you can join. This is a great way to find out about special promotions and offers that may only be available to subscribers.
Book Ahead – not only is it easier to shop for and compare excursions and private tours ahead of time, but you can sometimes get a discount for booking in advance, as well.
Watch the Tripfeed – we partner with various companies to provide our travelers with exclusive offers on tours and attractions in select cities. These messages will show up in the Tripfeed in your TripCase app.
