Buy a Roaming SIM Card - I cannot emphasis enough the value of purchasing a roaming SIM card if you travel overseas regularly. With a roaming SIM you will save anywhere up to 90% on what you would have spent had you used your home mobile. In many countries you will not pay to receive calls and this is where you will see the most significant savings. Some people will tell you to buy prepaid SIM cards from each country you visit but chances are that these will have an expiry date so you will be constantly trying to make sure everyone is kept up to date with what number you are using on that trip. If you buy an international roaming SIM card you could put it on your business card as your international phone number.

It will never change.Make sure you regularly fly with the same airline - If you regularly fly with the same airline you will earn frequent flyer points and these frequent flyer points can be redeemed for free flights. If you are constantly flying different airlines you will not earn these points and, as such, you will never earn free flights. Shopping around for cheaper flights may end up costing you more in the long term because of not being able to redeem these flights.Make sure you stay with the same hotel chain and join their rewards program - Like airline travel, try to stay with the same hotel chain through the world because you will be able to earn points for each night you spend there so that you can get free nights after a while.This article has contained some great tips that you can easily implement if you are a regular traveler. Do yourself a favor and take them up today.
