MATT CAIL: Hi, I'm Matt Cail. And on behalf of Expert Village, I'm going to be providing
you with tips to make your travel a lot easier this holiday season. Because things can and
will go wrong, it's important for you to keep a bunch of contact numbers for emergency situations
on your person whenever you're traveling on Thanksgiving. Now, if it's a situation where
if you run into a problem which changes your timing on when you're going to arrive or basically
if it's a situation where it's just bad weather messes up your flight, you're going to want
to make sure that you are able to call somebody and let them know. Maybe somebody is actually
meeting you at the airport to be able to pick you up and take you home for Thanksgiving
dinner. If you have a cell phone, that's great. Make sure you have some key numbers in there
including whoever may or may not be picking you up, people you're actually going to visit,
the car-rental place if you rented a car, also the airline. Oftentimes, airlines will
have information hotlines for you to be able to call, so that you can actually check on
the latest status of flights. That's very, very important given Thanksgiving which can
have a lot of flight alterations throughout the day because of the high volume of traffic
going on in and around that holiday, so make sure you have the information. You don't necessarily
even have to have a cell phone. If you want to rely on the good old pay phone, that's
no problem. You have a calling card, no problem. Just make sure that you have the numbers available
for anybody you have to call in case anything goes amiss with your travel.
