As the weather warms up and the days get longer, it’s only natural to start daydreaming about your European getaway *swoon*. While it may seem early to start planning, it’s actually the perfect time to plan your summer travel now!

Here at Soigne Studios HQ, we’re always jet-setting and looking to make the most of our vacation, so trust us when we say we know a thing or two. There are so many benefits to staying ahead of the curve and today we’re sharing with you some of our favorite and most helpful reasons.

Whether you’re traveling solo, with a partner, group, for a wedding or simply to collect the content of your dreams one thing remains the same; planning should be fun, not stressful. 

So please fasten your seatbelt, keep your arms and feet inside at all times, and let’s take off on why you need to play your summer travel NOW.

Better choice of accommodations

When you start planning your travel early, you have a better chance of getting the accommodations you want. Many popular hotels and resorts can book up quickly, especially during peak travel season. By planning ahead, you can secure your preferred accommodations and location, whether it’s a luxurious resort, a cozy bed, and breakfast, or a budget-friendly hostel.

More time for research and preparation

Early planning gives you more time to research your destination, read reviews, and make any ahead-of-time reservations. You can also use this time to plan out your content, compile vision boards on Pinterest, and save other creators’ content for those desirable and aesthetic photo locations, restaurants and any must-have Amazon finds. I’d also suggest downloading the Out Of Office app (OOO) to create your digital itinerary, ensuring that you don’t miss out on any attractions or experiences and later share with your audience. 

Lower travel prices

Booking early can often save you money, and we love that. Airlines and hotels may offer early bird discounts, and you may be able to find better deals on activities and tours. As the travel season approaches, prices tend to increase due to higher demand, so booking early can help you avoid inflated prices.

Reduced stress

Planning ahead can help reduce the stress and anxiety that can come with last-minute travel planning. When you plan early, you have plenty of time to make arrangements and ensure that everything is in order. You can also avoid the rush and panic that comes with last-minute bookings and changes.

More flexibility

When you plan early, you have more flexibility to make changes and adjustments to your travel plans. If you need to change your travel dates or itinerary, you have plenty of time to do so without incurring extra fees or penalties.

Having something to look forward to

*this is one is my favorite :)* Planning a summer vacation can give you something to look forward to and provide a much-needed break from the routine of everyday life. By making travel plans now, you can start to get excited about the trip and begin to envision all the fun, content, and relaxation you’ll experience and deserve. 

We hope you’ve enjoyed your time here on SOINGE/AIR and we can’t wait to see you plan your first class and content drool-worthy getaway!
