Tech Solutions

Do you travel a lot? Travelling can be fun, but also very exhausting. Thankfully, there are a number of tech gadgets, apps and other services that try to ease the pains felt by the modern traveler. If you are a frequent traveler, here are several tech solutions that will make your life a whole lot easier:

Buy a Portable Wi-Fi Unit

If you choose to pay for 4G costs while roaming, you would end up paying more than you did for the plane ticket. Data roaming plans can be notoriously expensive. A better, less costly solution is to use a prepaid mobile 4G plan. To get one, you need a portable Wi-Fi unit. Huawei 4G mini device is right now the most popular and reliable one. With the device you will get a prepaid SIM card that you can use wherever you are in the world. No more roaming plans. You can buy the prepaid SIM cards from many places in around the world as well. Or you can just buy one and top up using your credit card. Combine the mini Wi-Fi device with a VPN plan, and you will be able to access sites like Netflix to enjoy your favorite shows without any geographical restrictions.

Plan Your Itinerary Online

Obviously, you will need a good travel itinerary to enjoy your trip with peace of mind. Planning a tour can be a pain. That’s why it’s highly recommended to use an online tool like Utrip that will allow you to plan an itinerary to over 30 locations. You don’t have to fill out names or dates. The service will give you a mini questionnaire to fill out. Once you have done so, the tool will automatically generate a travel itinerary for you. You can then edit the itinerary as you like. Everything will be included, such as the layover for your charter plane Miami or a restaurant you want to visit on a specific date. The useful tools will make your travel planning process extremely convenient. There are also app equivalents that you can find on the Android or Apple stores.

Get a Power Bank

Smartphones rarely sustain battery life on long flights. So the best solution is to buy a power bank whenever you are travelling out for a prolonged period of time. A portable charger and a power bank will be all you need to stay connected when you are not near a power outlet. Don’t want to wait the long lines at the airport’s charging station? A power bank will prevent your need to do so. Power banks are also great for taking on outdoor trips to charge cameras and your Go Pro. There are many options available in the market, so you can pick one that fits your budget the best.

Get a Keyboard Stand Tablet Sleeve

Carrying your tablet with you on the plane? Then buy a tablet case or sleeve with a keyboard. You will be able to get work done quickly with a full keyboard and a tablet stand. Keyboard cases are available for smartphones as well. These neat little gadgets will immediately convert your handheld device to a laptop. Getting things done were never easier.

Buy yourself one or two of the above gadgets to make your traveling convenient and fun.
