5 top tips for hassle-free travel

-

 

While hopping on a plane might help you to satisfy your innate sense of wanderlust, the truth is that it can be something of a hassle as well. We’ve all buckled under the immense strain travelling can take on us in the past! If you want to make your journey as hassle-free as possible, here are a few top tips that you may want to try.

1. Make sure that you have the essentials

Before you even dream of leaving the house, you need to do this. There are certain things, such as your passport and tickets that you simply can’t travel without. If you’re heading to a country in which you will need a visa, you need to make sure that you have a hard copy of this as well. (Often enough a notification is attached to your passport stating that you have a visa, but it’s still worth taking a copy of your own.)


2. Avoid weighing yourself down

When it comes to travelling you may not realise the impact your suitcase has on your journey. Jetting off on holiday is so much easier if you are a minimalist packer or opt for a super lightweight case. If you’re packing 30 kilos and don’t have the biceps of The Rock, travelling through the airport will be an effort. Choose a lightweight case with 8 wheel 360 degree technology and the stressful days of lugging your bags through the airport to the gate will be over. Going lightweight means you can also benefit from more weight allowance, perfect for packing those holiday essentials and the less likely you are to be charged excess baggage. Or travel light with just a cabin size case and you’ll be able to get about so much more easily and won’t have to wait at the luggage carousel on arrival, giving you that little bit of extra time to enjoy your holiday.


3. Check in online when possible

Most airlines will allow you to check-in online before you’ve even reached the airport. In many cases, you have a 48 or 24 hour window before your flight in which you can check-in with utter ease online.


4. Download the airline app

Nowadays, many of the world’s major airlines have apps that their passengers can download. It’s worth simply checking the app store to see if your particular airline has one just for you. The apps will show you a range of information, including whether there are any flight delays or cancellations.


5. Leave yourself (more than) enough time

Remember, catching a flight can be stressful enough as it is without having to deal with an impending time constraint. Of course, you should check online to see how early you have to arrive for your flight. Once you know that, we’d suggest leaving just a little earlier than you think you need to. You must leave room for human error!

THE GROWING DEMAND IN EUROPE OF PARKING FOR TRUCKS According to a recent report from the European Commission, parking areas for trucks are increasingly needed in Europe. In particular, the study speaks of a deficit of 400,000 parking spaces for trucks and heavy vehicles. Unfortunately the collective is suffering more and more robberies, 75% of which in the parking areas themselves, so the European Union wants to promote parking areas for safe and protected trucks. The current situation is not comfortable for the transport sector, the drivers do not feel safe when they rest and the owners of the cargo are exposed to continuous theft and economic losses. According to the transport organization IRU, the theft losses represented 6,000 to 7,000 million euros last year. THE PROBLEMS OF THE CURRENT TRUCK PARKING ZONES PARKING WITHOUT HOMOLOGAR. Currently truck parking areas are different everywhere, without following a pattern, which causes uncertainty among truck drivers

Although this practice is particularly prevalent in large cities,  parking the vehicle in front of a gate or in front of a driveway is an offense. Drivers who might be tempted by the facility risk a 2nd class parking ticket for inconvenient parking. This is motivated by the fact that the position of the vehicle hinders the movement of other users. Moreover, even if it can be tolerated, parking in front of the gate or the driveway of his home is also an offense that can be punished. What are the risks of parking in front of a gate or driveway? Drivers who decide to take the risk of parking in front of a gate or driveway are in violation. Also, in case of control, they will be sanctioned. Indeed, French legislation provides that: "Any stop or parking embarrassing is punishable by the fine provided for the contraventions of the second class. Where the driver or the owner of the vehicle is absent or refuses, in spite of the officers' injunction, to stop the awkward parking

The Future of the $100 Billion Parking Industry

-
From self-driving vehicles to the rate of urbanization to the buzz of the car-sharing economy, it’s easy to surmise the death of parking. Yes, vehicle ownership is down and, yes, as The New York Times reported, the millennial generation values technology over cars. But the death of parking? Not quite. According to a recent analysis by Frost & Sullivan, the $100 billion worldwide parking industry is expected to attract institutional and strategic investments to the tune of $200 million to $250 million over the next three to five years, mostly to spur innovation and smarter parking.  A big reason for this infusion of capital is to remedy the inefficiencies in the ways that we park, per recent findings. So why has the parking industry taken so long to innovate? Until recently, parking and innovation have mixed like water and oil. This is largely due to the slow-changing nature of the two-headed parking industry, which comprises both on-street and off-street parking. On-stre
