Well, since now the world is slowly and gradually recovering from the loss of the pandemic, it is also time for you to come out of your shell. In fact, several leading travel brands such as CheapOair, Hotels.com, Expedia, Priceline, Emirates, Airbnb, and more have also launched plenty of exuberant deals to excite the travelers. As much fun the idea of planning the next trip may sound, the underlying stress and tension cannot be overruled. It is at this point that we come for your rescue. Here we have brought for you some tips which will help you in planning the perfect post vaccination trip. 

1. Check your Vaccination Status

No matter how much you fancy travelling, but the current scenario has made it extremely crucial for travellers to press the pause button and first think about their vaccination status. Travelling without getting fully vaccinated is not a luxury, the travel bees can afford any more. Hence, try to complete the vaccination process in your home country first. Also, check what all vaccinations are accepted in the country where you are planning to travel on this vaccination. In fact, several booking platforms also require travellers to show their fully vaccinated certificate in order to get a go for travelling. For all those people who are planning to travel internationally, make sure that you have all your testing and vaccination records in order to avoid any confusion or chaos. 

2. Research Your Destination Before you Book 

Choosing the perfect vacation destination can be a hard task, especially in the current scenario where many countries are continuously considering and reconsidering their border policies. In some cases, people might not have the freedom to choose their travel destination, but if you have then, make sure that you research deeply about the place beforehand. Some of the factors you need to emphasise on while researching include the local Covid-19 caseloads, how is the local health-care system, what is the risk factor of travelling there, and so on. The research part may be a bit stressful, but it will surely help you be prepared for what to expect when you land at a foreign place. 

3. Keep your Vacation Short and Sweet

Since you would be travelling after what may look like ages, it is natural for you to feel tempted to book the long awaited bucket list trip to celebrate your fully vaccinated status. However, it is preferable to take the better safe than sorry approach, especially if it is your first trip post pandemic. Opt for a somewhat low-stress and low-key vacation at a remote island resort or a house rental in a nearby beach town or a weekend visit to a nearby city. You can go to popular names like CheapOair, Airbnb, Expedia, Priceline and more to lookout for affordable and safe vacation destinations, that too while enjoying huge discounts up to 70%. While the vaccine rollout continues to unfurl around the world, look out for shorter trips and nearby vacation destinations to remain on a safer side. 

4. Set your Budget Limits and Stick to it

With freedom, comes responsibility. While you can now step out to finally travel to a different place, it is essential that you don’t get swept away in emotions. Make sure that while planning the vacation, you pay real attention to your budget. So that you are not left broke at the end of that memorable trip. Once you are done checking and reviewing your finances, make it a point to stick to your budget limit no matter how restrictive it is. In case, you are going through a phase of limited finances, then also you have nothing to worry about. There are a series of top brand names that are offering stupendous discounts to travelers on flight bookings. For instance, you can save up to 50% on hotel bookings at Hotels.com, CheapOair, while Emirates offers its members an unbelievable 75% bonus and a chance to earn up to 60,000 extra miles on booking. Travelling at a low budget should no longer be a worry to you. 

5. Pay Attention to the Fine Print

While the pandemic crisis is somewhat managed, it is necessary to remember that it is not yet fully averted. Till that happens, one can’t fully eliminate the possibility of future variants or outbreaks which can lead to future travel restrictions. Hence, while making hotels as well as flight bookings, one needs to be ready for uncertain situations. Make sure to go through the cancellation policy of every booking that you make carefully. In addition to that, also do your research on individual destinations too. Just because a destination has lifted the travel restrictions and is open to tourists, does not necessarily mean that the various attractions, museums, restaurants, etc of the place are functioning as per usual schedule. If you are planning to take an international vacation, doing all these things becomes all the more crucial.

6. Be Sensitive, Patient, & Generous

The pandemic has been exhaustive and damaging for people across the world, mentally, physically and well as financially. If things haven’t been that much tough for you during this crisis, then consider yourself lucky. There is nothing bad if you are planning to travel and relax while some people are still struggling to get their life back together, but the key here is to remain sensitive and patient. Many businesses and employees around the world including hotels, tour guides, flight attendants, waiters, bartenders, and so on have suffered severe financial damage. Hence while you are able to grab exciting discounts from 50 to 70% on your flight and hotel bookings from brands like CheapOair, Etihad airways, Qatar airways, and more, it is important that you also tip the people serving you generously. Be flexible, considerate, and generous to keep the circle of humanity running smoothly.

7. Keep a check on Safety Measures

This is a rule which goes by without saying for travelers. In order to maintain the safety of you as well as others, it is important to follow the general safety precautions and rules. Make sure to carry with yourself the safety essentials such as a hand sanitizer, mask, shield, gloves, and other requirements. Also, be a little patient with the onboarding process. The safety check ups may get a bit long, but they are there to ensure your safety and health. Hence, cooperate with the officials and maintain social distancing at all points. Apart from that, for additional safety, make sure that the flights you are boarding or the hotel rooms you are staying in are properly cleaned and sanitized. For instance, the top flight names such as Qatar Airways, CheapOair, Etihad Airways, etc. make sure that their flights are completely sanitized and safe according to the Covid-19 protocols. Best part? In addition to pure safety, users also get to enjoy a minimum of 20% and a maximum of up to 75% discount on their bookings.
