Book a Hotel Near Your Meetings Transportation fees can take a hefty chunk out of your travel budget, even after you step off the plane. Business Travel News’ 2015 Corporate Travel Index estimated travelers drop an average of $46.89 per day on their rental car. Even rideshare apps like Uber and Lyft can add up fast when you use them to get back and forth between your hotel and the conference center each day. Save yourself some cash and book a hotel within walking distance of where your meetings will be held. Plus, after sitting in meetings all day, a brisk walk outside can do wonders for your health. Eat Right and Sleep Well When you’re in a rush to get from the hotel to your meeting, you might be tempted to grab a donut from the coffee shop. Resist the urge!

meetings, and continuing education courses across the country. These trips are important, but getting to them can be a pain. If you were exhausted by your last business trip, here are some tricks to make the next one easier.

Long lines inch slowly along as you hurry to remove your shoes, empty your pockets, and locate all the liquids in your carry-on luggage. Say farewell to this headache with TSA Precheck. Travelers who qualify for TSA Precheck don’t have to remove their shoes, jacket, or belt; electronics and any 3-1-1 liquids remain in your carry-on; and the line is much shorter. In some cases, flyers wait a mere five minutes in TSA Precheck compared to 80 minutes in the standard security line. Learn how to apply at tsa.gov/tsa-precheck.
