    How to Plan a Last-Minute Trip Without Missing Out on All the Best Things

    In an ideal world, we’d plan all of our holidays months in advance. But sometimes, the need for a spontaneous getaway is difficult to escape. It might be that you experience a sudden desire to get away from it all. On the other hand, last-minute travel can often throw up opportunities that are difficult to pass up.

    But exactly how do you get the best out of this form of holiday? Let’s look at a few choice tips.

    Embrace Flexibility

    To begin with, you’ll want to embrace the last-minute mindset. This means keeping an open mind when it comes to your destination and travel times. If you’re determined to visit a given place at a given time, then you may find the opportunities limited. By casting a wider net, you’ll stand a better chance of benefitting from the very best deals.

    Of course, this only matters if you’re actually aware of those deals. This is where travel search engines and fare comparison sites are so effective. Make sure that you set up notifications, so that you get an email whenever an opportunity arises that matches your criteria. Bear in mind that different platforms will offer different deals, so it’s worth signing up for several of them.

    Prioritise Your Must-Dos

    Just because you’re keeping an open mind, doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t have personal priorities. As soon as you know where you’re going, you should research local activities. This applies especially if you know you’re only going to have a few days, or less, to spend in the place in question.

    Ideally, you’ll have made a shortlist of destinations that meet your criteria. You can research these thoroughly, so that you know exactly what you’d like to do when a last-minute holiday opportunity shows up.

    In some cases, the way you spend your time will be obvious. Last-minute skiing holidays can offer a range of entertainment outside of the slope, but if you’re going to a given resort, it’s a good idea to take a look at the piste map and decide which runs are worth tackling.

    Leverage Technology

    Last-minute booking is largely only possible because of technology. Without the internet, it would be very difficult for travel companies to fill any vacant hotel rooms and airline seats.

    But nowadays, the influence of technology is even more extensive. If you’re travelling last minute, you’ll benefit from instant confirmation, real-time inventory, dynamic pricing, and, of course, dedication mobile phone applications.

    Pack Smart

    The lighter you’re packing, the more pleasant your last-minute experience will tend to be. Make sure that you have essentials, like toiletries, as well as a versatile wardrobe comprising lightweight options that can be easily layered as the weather demands. Make sure that you have a checklist to hand when you do the packing itself.

    Be Prepared for the Unexpected

    Like all forms of travel, last-minute holidays are vulnerable to disruption. If there’s a train strike or a public holiday, then you’ll want to be flexible enough to adapt your itinerary. Make sure that you have backup options when it comes to activities, and that you’re covered by quality travel insurance.
