If you are planning to have a weekend getaway with your kids. Here's 4 Trip Tips To Remember
- Read the fine print. Before you book, take a close look at which activities are part of the package (parasailing, waterskiing and excursions often aren't) and whether tips and beverages (including the alcoholic kind) are extra. We've all heard I'm Staaarrrving! at 10:00 pm. So always stay at resorts where food and beverage are available almost 24/7, which is nice because you don't have to think too much .
- Match the kids with the resort. The larger inclusive chains, like beaches and club Med, have ramped up the offerings for the youngest kids. You'll find baby food on the buffet line and a nanny who'll come to your room. Look for after dinner hangout like game rooms, to keep the kids happy.
- Research airfare. Though the airfare may be cheaper in a package, you may have to transfer several times and could get whacked with penalties if you make a change. Consider paying a bit more to book it yourself.
- Get to know the staff. Always sit at the same table at dinner and you'll probably get the same waiter. Befriend her or him. Why? Families tends to eat at the same time, so waiters will have lots of kids beside yours who needs extra napkins. The result: The more enjoyable meal for everybody.
