TRAVEL

Getting ready to travel

The bags are packed. Are your car and home ready?

Friday afternoon. You lock up, set the destination and leave. At the first stop you remember roadside assistance — but not who to call or whether it covers your destination.

Before leaving, save the useful contact details and check your car’s readiness with your garage.

At home, organise keys and anything that needs to stay on. You can share your holiday photos after you return.

Remember this

A more relaxed departure starts before you close the door.
