No matter if you’ve traveled for years or just caught the bug, there are always rumors about traveling flying around that can influence your experience. Traveling is such a wonderful and enlightening experience, so put your worries to rest by debunking these travel myths.

Cheap Airlines

There are a few companies that have cheap tickets but are a little strict with baggage allowance. However, if you still want to save money but pack a little more than you know you should, see about upgrading your seat. When you upgrade, you usually get a free bag, and the cost of upgrading is usually cheaper than paying for a checked bag.

Water

Locals and tourists alike can be very afraid of drinking tap water for no good reason. If you are traveling through well-established places, drink the water! There might be some extra minerals or a slightly different taste, but it definitely won’t hurt you to drink it.
