Planning a trip involves more than booking a flight and packing a suitcase. Use these helpful trip-planning tips to make sure that you've got all your bases covered when planning your next big adventure.

1. Organize Your Documents
Make sure your passport is up-to-date, with at least six months grace period from the end of your trip until your passport expires. Check the visa requirements of the countries you plan to visit - some require you to get a visa before you arrive, while other countries will issue a visitor's visa upon arrival. And don't forget to get travel insurance!

TAKING BABY ON A PLANE!

 The idea of flying with a baby may seem daunting at first, but taking your little one on a trip with you can be fun and exciting, and with a little planning, may not be as troublesome as you may think. Here are some tips to help make your trip smooth sailing - for you and your baby.

1. Plan Feedings - The takeoffs and landings during airplane rides can be hard on little ears, but the sucking action of feeding helps to alleviate the pressure in baby ears. It will also keep the baby occupied during a critical time in the flight, and if you're lucky, a good feeding on takeoff, plus the ambient noise and the gentle shaking of the plane will lull the baby right to sleep.
