Travel smart this summer

Summer’s here and the time is right to think about going on vacation. We all look forward to time away with our family and friends. Whether you’re relaxing on a sunny beach, trekking through a wilderness park, or taking in the city’s bright lights, your trip will go more smoothly if you do some planning and educate yourself.

The Consumer Protection website has some great tips on protecting your consumer rights when you’re away from home. The Travel Industry Council of Ontario (TICO) has information to protect you from fraud and ensure you’re booking with a registered travel agent.

The site also includes some great advice on protecting your travel investment with insurance, keeping personal documents secure, and understanding all the services that travel agents offer.

So travel safely, be informed and you’ll have a great time wherever you go this summer.
