💡 Tips for a cheaper ticket

💸

Money hackKeep two cards in two places

Carry one card in your wallet and hide a backup in your bag, so one lost wallet never ends the trip.

💸

Money hackUse a no-foreign-fee card

A debit or credit card without foreign transaction fees saves 2–3% on every purchase and ATM withdrawal abroad.

💸

Money hackWithdraw bigger amounts, less often

Most ATMs charge a flat fee, so taking out cash for several days at once is cheaper than many small withdrawals.
