Carry on only is the best! We've just passed the one year mark of full time travel with carry on only and we're loving it 😀 Wow, that washing your hands tip takes on so much more meaning in 2020!
My tip for travel and to manage travel-related stress is noise cancelling headphones. Being able to just put my headphones on, put on some music that relaxes me, and drown out the noise and cacophony (works great if there are crying babies on airplanes) helps me manage stress while traveling. Also works great if I can't sleep in a hotel or hostel because of all the noise inside and out of the building.
Good tips! I'm about to travel to Asia in just a few days! ... and am returning home to the US on Christmas day! .. because of the time zones, I'll be starting off celebrating Christmas while in Singapore, and when I hop off here in the US, it will be Christmas morning, once again!
I flew the day after thanksgiving (kind of an odd time) this past weekend and key for me: bring extra snacks! My flight was delayed and I’m glad I didn’t have to rely on airport food that wasn’t appealing.
I've missed you guys! Glad you are back. Thanks for a great vid! I booked my next trip thinking just like you. So I'm off Jan 1:st. Would not have minded flying on Dec 31:st but there was no flight then. Keep Up The Great Work!
Excellent tips! Flying on XMAS day is awesome - empty airports and often near empty planes too. I always carry light with my Osprey Farpoint 40, which has plenty of room. The basics I always pack in my carry-on for every flight: 1) Toothbrush/toothpaste 2) Any medications/aspirin/etc. 3) A quick change of clothes just in case (shirt, underwear, socks, etc.) 4) Inflatable travel pillow 5) Small bottle of liquid soap, alcohol gel, wet wipes 6) Travel towel
I had to fly back to the US for a family emergency in 2010 in December. I also found it cheaper to fly back to the UK on the 24th! It was great. My flight was empty and so was Heathrow when I landed. The only downside was no public transportation!
It's crazy that last year on 25th December I was traveling and this year I am traveling too, your video will help me guys, thank you. And happy early holidays 💙
I've missed you, guys! Are you still doing TH-cam Red or whatever their paid service is called now? I don't think we have it where I am but if we did and you posted there, I'd gladly pay just to watch your videos! Happy Holidays! Hope your mom is doing better!
Great tips guys, all very logical and practical. Fortunately, I I have never needed to fly over the holidays as my family is all within a driving distances. ♥️🇨🇦
Travel over holidays that do not occur in every country. For example, In Australia no one travels around Thanksgiving because it doesn't exist. So it would get a great opportunity to travel to see Australia just before the heat wave of summer hits. A lot less touristy than Gatlinburg or Opry Resorts. Totally agree with being in the airport on Christmas day. I have flown home three time on New Years Eve cue music I am getting drunk on a plane.
My T-Mobile phone already does WiFi calling (GSM tunnel over WiFi) and my plan offers unlimited cellular data when I’m away from WiFi. It may be throttled to 2G but it’s a lifeline when you’re trying to find your way via google maps. I also always carry a stand alone GPS (Garmin) which doesn’t need a data connection to get map data (but it still can get FM real-time traffic data). Newer models can use your phone’s data connection via Bluetooth to get traffic and other data. Very handy in a rental car where there’s no cell service.
If you're a U.S. citizen flying internationally to get home for the holidays, download Mobile Pass to get through customs quickly! It's free and the line is always so short!
Going to Quebec in december🤘🏽can’t wait for the cold & snow... but I def don’t do layovers in Canada during the winter, only direct flights... allons-y!
vagabrothers definitely, I’ve shown both of your Quebec series to anyone I’ve tried to convince to go to Quebec. Got ideas from you as well cuz I did the zipline at the montmorency falls & went to Cassa Monna et filles for their black currant wine, def great tips & great places to go.
Kate Malone ouais! I love Quebec. I go back as much as I can! Usually once a year. People always ask me why I keep going back, I’m like “have you been there?” Haha... you’ve left?
No, I'm still in the province! I live in a nice quiet town outside Montreal, not quite a suburb, not quite the countryside. It's nice for nature photography, cider and all sorts of activities, ranging from hiking a mountain to boating in the summer to visiting a gallery or a museum or antiquing, there's something for everyone in almost every region! If you're going to Quebec city, and you've never been, try a day trip on Orleans Island. There's food and drinks tours available for really reasonable prices, the chocolate factory I hear is pretty sweet (pun intended! haha). The first french settlers in the Quebec area settled the island shortly after establishing a port in Quebec City, almost every person of french canadian ancestry today has roots there, it's still farmed to this day, and I'm sure it's pretty in the winter, albeit maybe a little windy! lol
I do not know English. I use Google translate. so curious about your country, I couldn't go that far. Video is awesome. My videos are tours in Vietnam. have you been to Vietnam yet ?
Is there any way of avoiding being humiliating in customs? You stand being bellowed at by a customs official while trying to make sure your valeables are safe as they go through. I shudder at the meer mention of customs
Arrive early at the airport to allow enough time for unexpected things, bring an e-reader to spend waiting time meaningfully, and avoid your relatives as much as you can.
Longtime subscriber here-love you guys and your videos-BUT…I hate to see that you’ve given in to the trend of talking away from the camera. Alex has a very handsome profile, but I don’t want to see it while he’s talking to me. It’s way more charming and personal when you guys just look into the camera and talk to your viewers as if we were your friends. Just saying.

I’m so glad to be done with school so I don’t have to travel during the holidays! October travel? How about March? I can go whenever I want now!!
👏🏼 FREEDOM 😂

Amazing tips as always! Loved the video!

They are so good!! Thanks for watching!

Yay, a video that includes Marko!
Very useful and helpful information ℹ️ Thanks for sharing.
Trap in flight delay right now. This vid really helps!
I travel frequently still learnt something new!

Lucky!! It can be so hectic to fly during the holidays
The most valuable present I can give to my fam and friends is a link to Vagabrothers!

4:42 Especially on Ryanair xD
Y’all making more videos, you had great content ❤

Use wet wipes to wipe down your area on the plane. Staff rarely clean surfaces. Don't cough into your hands, cough into the pit of your elbow.
Good tips Jen!
I use wipes also for the whole area around the seat and tray.
Amazing video 👌👌
Thank you Rewant

These are some great ideas!! Although I don't travel during the winter season anymore lol. One of the many perks about living in California...

Missing both of you guys :)
You guys helped srilanka a lot ❤️

Have fun! Quebec is beautiful. I hope you’ve watched both of our series on Quebec

Yay, French Canada! My homeland. :) The whole province is fun in winter, there's so much to do and see!

Early bird comments are always the bezt 😊😏😏😏
Hahaha 🐦
Marco's mustaches are iconic
I do not know English. I use Google translate. so curious about your country, I couldn't go that far. Video is awesome. My videos are tours in Vietnam. have you been to Vietnam yet ?
The onrange thingi, is like a every month payment? O you just buy it and use it indefinitely?
They have different plans. We got the one year unlimited but that’s because we travel a lot and need WiFi for work
Is there any way of avoiding being humiliating in customs? You stand being bellowed at by a customs official while trying to make sure your valeables are safe as they go through. I shudder at the meer mention of customs
That’s a good question, We always think having a smile is always helpful at customs
@vagabrothers do you ever travel standby? Never done but, but wonder if you guys have and the pros/cons?
Thank upload new video. U r missing in many days
Hello Vijay! More videos on the way!
Arrive early at the airport to allow enough time for unexpected things, bring an e-reader to spend waiting time meaningfully, and avoid your relatives as much as you can.
