Any tips to make the experience more bearable? by [deleted] I traveled for years and hated every minute of it. Here’s what took me too long to learn, now I quite enjoy traveling. Get TSA pre check, it will make your life better. Global entry if you’re doing international travel. Pick and airline and be loyal to it, get their cobranded card and put your travel expenses on it, you’ll have status faster than you think. Cards are also a good way to get access to lounges. Layovers are better in lounges. If you rent cars, pick the same company every time and join their rewards program. Getting status with rental companies is worth it. Hotels, join their rewards program. Status has benefits in room selection. All of these make the trip just a little better in their own way, combined it makes a huge difference, almost makes business travel enjoyable. Permalink 28
