Protect you and your family from unforeseen travel emergencies (from medical to lost baggage) with travel insurance.
  1 of 4  
Prepare ahead and exchange your money before you leave. Having some local currency on hand is easy for taxis or food.
  2 of 4  
Inform your credit card provider of your travel plans and let them know you’ll be using your card abroad.
  3 of 4  
Clean out your wallet or purse and only bring what you need. Leave additional cards (retail, gym, library, points cards, etc.) at home in a safe place.
