If you’re planning on travelling,there are a few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.

First of all,always check and double-check departure (起程 ) time. It is amazing how few people really do this carefully. Once I arrived at the airport a few minutes after ten. My secretary had got the ticket for me and I thought she had said that the plane left at 10：50. When I arrived at the airport,the clerk at the departure desk told me that my flight was closed. Therefore,I had to wait three hours for the next one and missed an important meeting.

The second rule is to remember that even in this age of credit cards,it is still important to have at least a little of the local currency (货币) with you when you arrive in a country. This can be necessary if you are flying to a place few tourists normally visit. A few years ago I was sent to Tulsa,Oklahoma. I flew there from London via (经由) Dallas,with very little time to change planes in between. I arrived there at midnight and the bank at the airport was closed. The only way to get to my hotel was by taxi and because I had no dollars,I offered to pay in pounds instead.

“Listen!I only take real money!” the driver said angrily. Luckily I was able to borrow a few dollars from a clerk at the hotel,but it was embarrassing (令人难堪的) .

The third and last rule is to find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination before you leave. I feel sorry for some of my workmates who travel in heavy suit and raincoats in May,when it is still fairly cool in London or Manchester.
