replying to @TripActions @TripActions A2 Make sure you take pics of or upload your receipts to stay organized and so you don’t lose them. #TravelSkills

A2 For those starting on business trips: don't forget to sign up for #loyalty programs -- airline, hotel, rental car/rideshare company, etc! Over time, loyalty could easily come back to reward you in the way of upgrades & special perks (making a work trip easier) #TravelSkills

replying to @TripActions @TripActions A2 When going to conferences, use one pocket for your own business cards and the other for the ones you get. And write notes about each person on the back of their card so that you remember them. That will make the follow-up a lot easier. #TravelSkills

replying to @JohnnyJet @JohnnyJet @andrewmhickey @NorieCicerone @jboyd A2: as a travel journalist and radio contributor, I do my research well before the trip. Many times upon arrival after traveling over 24 hours, the subject says, “Let’s do the radio show taping now.” And you have to be ready to dive right in. #TravelSkills @JohnnyJet
