TIPS FOR AVOIDING JET LAG

1.     Start changing your body"s clock a week or two before your trip, gradually adjusting
        your eating and sleeping schedule in the direction of the one you  adopt in Europe.
2.     Dehydration and bloating can become problems on long flights. Drink lots of water,
        skip the alcohol and do an occasional lap through the plane aisles.
3.     Absolutely, positively, without question,
do not allow yourself a nap upon arrival.

        
Keep yourself awake until at least eleven (11) pm the first two nights after arrival.
         You may not sleep a full eight hours the first night, but you'll feel a lot better
         for the rest of the week.
Travel Tips
Make a photocopy of the first two pages of your passport, and a copy of your airline ticket or e-ticket confirmation. Carry these separate from your actual passport and ticket. This will speed replacement if lost.

Never pack your prescription drugs in your checked luggage - carry them in your carry-on.

Take medication in its actual prescription bottles, to avoid possible confiscation.

Put your name and address on a label inside your suitcases, to aid ID if luggage is lost.

Give copies of your itinerary - including dates, names and phone numbers of hotels to your family or friends, for emergency use.

ATM's are an easy and fast way to get cash abroad in local currencies. Make sure you have a PIN number that will work with your card in a cash machine.
