Whether you’re heading out on a last-minute, overnight business trip, or a five-day conference abroad, packing for business travel is always different than prepping for a fun vacation.

Your work trip packing list will likely include more electronics and gear. So you’ll need to plan around the extra items and weight.

Also, traditional business clothes are notoriously delicate and wrinkle-prone, so they can be difficult to pack.

This article will break down how and what to pack for your business trip. We’ll cover men’s and women’s business clothing , advice on managing your electronics, and more.

• Personal-item-sized
• Easy to pack
• Comfortable to carry
• Built to last

How to Pack for a Business Trip

Carry on plus personal item.

When packing for a work trip, use carry-on-sized luggage plus a personal item that can carry your laptop.

How to Pack Your Laptop for Travel

Pack your laptop in your personal item when you travel, ideally in a backpack, briefcase, or messenger bag with a dedicated laptop sleeve for protection. If you’re using a tote or other bag that doesn’t have a padded area for your laptop, invest in a laptop sleeve to protect it.

If you’re one-bagging, make sure you choose luggage that has a dedicated laptop compartment. Remove your laptop before stowing your bag in the overhead compartment so that you can work during your flight.

Whatever you do, never, ever put your laptop in a checked bag and risk it being broken, lost, or stolen while in transit.

Roll Your Clothes and Pack Them in Packing Cubes

Once upon a time, I didn’t use  packing cubes . And my bag was a disaster. It took long minutes to find the shirt I was looking for or clean socks. Not anymore, thanks to packing cubes.

To look your best, you should fold your clothes along the seams then roll them . Yes, this even applies to most dress clothes. When you arrive, hang your clothes in the closet or even in the bathroom when you shower to release more wrinkles. Your hotel should have an iron for any necessary touchups beyond that.

For maximum organization, use packing cubes and assign each one a purpose. For example, a smaller packing cube holds underwear. A larger cube keeps your shirts organized and wrinkle-free. Then, roll them before zipping them away to make each item easy to find while preventing creases and wrinkles.

How to Pack Your Suit: Fold, Don’t Roll

A traditional, wool suit must be packed properly to keep its shape while in transit. To pack a suit in a carry on , fold it, don’t roll it.

Alternatively, you can try a wrinkle-free suit from Bluffworks or Ministry of Supply ( men’s , women’s ). Wrinkle-free, synthetic fabrics have improved dramatically from the early days of stiff, plastic-y dress shirts.

Stuff smaller, soft accessories like your socks, tie, and pocket square in your shoes to preserve their shape.

Business Trip Packing List

A good business trip packing list is built around a solid core, personalized to your needs and style. “Work clothes” can vary depending on your industry and the nature of your trip. You could be dressed anywhere from a three-piece suit to a shirt and slacks to a hoodie and jeans. Pack and dress as makes sense for your business trip.

Let’s start with the basics.

• Copy of itinerary
• Boarding pass
• Transportation and accommodations

If your business trip takes you across borders, don’t leave home without your passport. If you’re traveling abroad for your business trip, know that some countries won’t let you in without a guarantee of when you’ll leave. Pack a copy of your complete itinerary, including evidence of when you’ll leave the country, to show border security.

After your passport, your boarding pass is your most important document. Mobile boarding passes are convenient, but make sure that you’ll have internet access via your phone if you plan to use one. Or, take a screenshot of the boarding pass and use it offline through your photo app.

For your own convenience, print out the details of your transportation from the airport to your accommodations (if you’ve booked anything), the address of where you’re staying (for customs forms and taxi drivers).

I use  TripIt  to aggregate all of my trip details in one place. Using the app is more convenient than carrying a stack of printouts with me. However, paper copies are better for border crossings and for when you don’t have WiFi access or a local SIM card.

Electronics

• Phone and charger
• Headphones or earbuds
• Laptop and charger
• Adapter (if traveling abroad)

Carry earbuds if you want to travel light or noise-canceling headphones if you want a quieter trip. For the latter, we like Bose’s QuietComfort line.

The  Macbook Pro  and  Macbook Air  are the most popular choices for Apple users. We recommend the lightest computer you can get that doesn’t sacrifice the performance you’ll need. Dave at Too Many Adapters wrote a helpful guide to  choosing a laptop for work and travel .

• Eye mask and ear plugs
• Water bottle
• Kindle or book
• Pen and notebook

If you’re taking long flights or overnight trains, earplugs and an eye mask make for all-natural, compact sleep aids.

Get a reusable, refillable water bottle for your travels so that you can stay hydrated without generating the extra trash of plastic bottles.

I’m still old-school and read physical books instead of using a Kindle. Either way, don’t forget a good book to pass long hours waiting or traveling.

Clothes: Business Travel Wardrobe

When packing clothes for a business trip, look for items that pull double-duty and that can be dressed up or down.

Meaning: that black dress looks equally stunning with a scarf for a casual business meeting or a statement necklace for a client dinner. Whatever your personal style is, pack items that make you feel comfortable and confident.

Although the exact items will differ depending on your style and gender, the clothes section of a 3-day business packing list looks like this:

• 3 tops; 2 dress tops and 1 casual top
• 1-2 bottoms
• 3 pairs of underwear
• 3 pairs of socks
• 1 set of pajamas
• 2 pairs of shoes : 1 dress shoe and 1 athletic/casual shoes
• Workout clothes (optional)

Women’s Business Travel Wardrobe

Use the above business trip packing list template and add the following for a 3-day business trip.

2 Blouses and 1 T-Shirt

• 1 lightweight t-shirt to dress up or down

Pack two business-appropriate blouses or collared shirts and wear the more casual t-shirt on the plane. I love J.Crew’s vintage cotton t-shirts as they look chic (and feel comfortable) with jeans or slacks. 

Everlane has a range of modern, basic shirts that work for both business and casual attire. Their Japanese GoWeave line is especially good for travel since the fabric is durable, wrinkle-resistant, and comfortable.

• 1 dark-colored blazer or suit jacket

It’s no secret that I’m a huge J.Crew fan. Their women’s blazers fit well, look chic, and last a long time. Consider a wool blazer that keeps you cool in hot boardrooms and warm on chilly airplanes.

If you’re willing to make the investment, consider a wrinkle-resistant blazer, like the Kinetic Blazer by Ministry of Supply , that you can pack without worrying about it turning into a rumpled mess. En route, wear your blazer so it doesn’t get wrinkled in your carry on bag.

2 Bottoms and 1 Dress

• 1 pair of slacks or skirt
• 1 pair of dark-wash  jeans , worn on the plane
• 1  dress (optional)

Opt for  Betabrand’s Yoga Dress Pants  for sleek black pants made from stretchy material like your favorite yoga pants. Alternatively, look at ADAY’s line of pants for a wrinkle, odor, and pill-resistant pair of business travel pants that are technical, travel-ready, and fashionable.

I live in jeans, and even on the dressiest business trip, I’d yearn for a pair. If you’re like me, wear your jeans on the plane. My favorites are Lucky Brand jeans with some stretch woven in.

Love your dresses? Pack a versatile dress like one from  Draper James  or any of the odor-and-wrinkle-resistant merino wool dresses by Wool& .

3 Pairs of Underwear and Socks

• 3 pairs of  socks
• 3 pairs of  underwear
• 2  bras

If you want to hand wash your underwear, you can get away with packing less. However, for a short 3-day business trip like this one, pack one pair per day. Because you’ll save more on time vs packing space.

2 Pairs of Shoes

• 1 pair of business-appropriate shoes
• 1 pair of athletic shoes, worn on the plane

Pack one pair of professional shoes that are small, light, and comfortable, like this  pair of classic black heels from Clarks , or a simple and easy-to pack pair of flats or loafers by Rothy’s .

You can wear your heels through the airport, but I wouldn’t recommend it. Instead, I wear a pair of black athletic shoes that I can use for a run or workout at my destination.

1 Set of Pajamas

• 1 lightweight shirt
• 1 lightweight, athletic pair of shorts

My favorite packing light secret? Make your pajamas and workout clothes the same outfit. Snag a quick, sweaty workout in the AM and hand wash your clothes in the sink. By the time you’re ready for bedtime, your clothes will be dry and ready for you.

Men’s Business Travel Wardrobe

Use the business trip packing list template and add the following for a 3-day business trip.

2 Dress Shirts and 1 Casual T-Shirt

• 2 wrinkle-resistant dress shirts
• 1 casual shirt that’s suitable for after-dinner drinks and on the airplane

Ironing dress shirts is a pain. Instead, opt for a wrinkle-resistant dress shirt (or two), like one from Bluffworks . They are made from 98% polyester (that’s a good thing), have lots of stretch, are breathable, and dry quickly. The best part is that they’re machine washable. Perfect for happy hour or the boardroom in any city you visit.

For your casual shirt, opt for a versatile merino wool t-shirt that will stand up to the rigors of travel.

2 Pairs of Pants

• 2 pairs of pants and/or  jeans

For a pair of pants that can easily work for business and leisure alike, pack a pair of basic, but high-performance pants, like the good-looking  Outlier Slim Dungarees . If you prefer jeans, try  Bonobos’ Extra Stretch Travel Jeans  which are made from lightweight, 10.5 ounce denim and have a 1% stretch.

Stick to 1-2 pairs of pants and wear your more casual pair on your flight.

Avoid doing laundry on a quick, three-day business trip and, instead, pack three pairs of underwear and three pairs of socks.

1 Blazer or Jacket

Read the full Buyer’s Guide to Travel Blazers for all of our favorites. Or, jump right to our top pick, the wrinkle-free  Bluffworks Gramercy Travel Blazer .

• 1 pair of dress shoes
• 1 pair of athletic shoes for workouts (optional)

Think small, light, and comfortable for your shoes. Like the  Lenox Hill Cap Toe Oxfords from Cole Haan  or  Vivobarefoot Ra II.

Packing two pairs? Wear the heavier or bulkier pair through the airport and pack the lighter pair.

• 1 lightweight, athletic pair of shorts

5-Day Business Trip Packing List

For a longer, five-day business trip, be prepared to hand wash your clothes mid-trip. Or, have the hotel do it for you. Check with the front desk to see if they offer a laundry service for guests. Make sure to ask how long it will take and the price.

Not keen on doing laundry? Prepare to pack a little more in your luggage. You can still pack carry-on-only for a five-day trip. Some of our customers travel for weeks, months, or years out of just a carry on .

When your clothes get a little wrinkled or smelly, hang them up in the bathroom while you take a hot, steamy shower. The hot, moist air eases wrinkles and smells from your clothes.

What to add to the base list above for a five-day business trip:

• 2 pairs of socks
• 2 pairs of underwear
• 1 blouse or dress shirt
• 1 casual shirt to dress up or down

Overnight Business Trip Packing List

Ready for a quick, easy packing list for a one-night business trip? Reduce the number of items in your one-day work trip packing list by two.

Pack an outfit, wear an outfit, and add the non-clothing essentials.

What to pack for an overnight business trip:

• 1 dress shirt
• 1 casual shirt
• 1 pair of dress pants or skirt
• 1 pair of casual pants
• 1-2 pairs of shoes (one dress pair and one athletic)
• 1 pair of underwear
• 1 pair of socks
• 1 blazer or jacket
• Book or kindle
• Notebook and pen
• Ear plugs and eye mask
• Travel adaptor and passport (if international)

Steal a page from George Clooney’s well-refined playbook from  Up in The Air  and streamline your airport experience by packing only in a carry on bag . You’ll save time at the airport and feel more confident.

Traveling for work seems glamorous on the surface.

You’ve got free flights, time out of the office, and your company is paying for (almost) everything.

Who wouldn’t want that?

But anyone who’s actually taken a business trip knows there’s another side to this coin. Between the red-eye flights, working remotely , and juggling back-to-back meetings and events – it’s exhausting.

Well, it can be.

The savviest business travelers know the importance of time management, efficient packing, and trip planning that allows you to squeeze in some exploration without missing a single meeting (all while still getting enough sleep).

If you’re a first-time business traveler, here’s how you can still bring your A-game and see more of the world at the same time!

Tips for Your First Time Traveling For Work

Know Your Company’s Travel Policy Like The Back of Your Hand

The secret weapon in your business travel toolkit? Memorizing your company’s travel policy.

Why? Well, for two important reasons:

• If you’re clueless about what is allowed, you could be leaving some serious business travel perks on the table.
• If you’re clueless about what isn’t allowed, you might have an unexpected deduction on your paycheck next month.

Before your first work trip, take the time to review your company’s travel policy word for word and note anything crucial that you’ll need to remember as you begin to pack your bags. 

By the time you’re done familiarizing yourself with your policy, you should know things like:

• Your per diem for travel days (i.e., do you get a flat amount for expenses, or a unique budget per item, like breakfasts, lunches, dinners by yourself or with clients, and transportation?).
• Whether or not you need receipts (physical or a scanned copy) for purchases.
• What expenses are up for reimbursement (e.g., will your company cover your visa application fee? Your rental car? Your checked bag?) 
• The deadlines for submitting expense reports.
• How much can you spend per night on a hotel room? Does it need to be a specific hotel or hotel chain? Can you use an alternative accommodation like Airbnb or VRBO?
• Can you use your frequent flyer number to collect flight miles? Does it need to be a specific airline?
• Can you use your own credit card or is there a company card?

What happens if your company’s travel policy isn’t super clear on the above? Set up some time with HR and/or your boss to go over these details and address any lingering questions you might have.

Doing so will help prevent any surprise expenses before, during, and after a work trip.

Tip: Use an app like Mint.com to track all your expenses and take pictures of every single receipt you get as soon as you’re handed it, just in case you lose any!

Book The Right Hotel

Booking a hotel room seems pretty basic, right?

Hop onto a site like Booking.com , put in your budget range, select the “I’m traveling for work” box (which allows you to filter for key amenities like free wifi or included breakfast), and you’re done.

Well… it’s not that easy .

When traveling for work to a new city, other factors that you can’t always control come into play.

First of all, you might be limited to a specific hotel or hotel chain your company has a negotiated agreement and special rate with, which means you won’t have a choice as to where you stay. However, if your company doesn’t have a specific hotel requirement, you have to make sure to familiarize yourself with the city and the surroundings using Google Maps. The worst thing you could do is accidentally choose a hotel far away or in an unsafe neighborhood. 

To avoid this, figure out where your meetings or work obligations will be, and try your best to book a hotel room as close as possible to it.

You might have to pay more for a hotel with a convenient location, which will no doubt save you travel time and the stress of navigating a new city. But keep in mind that more expensive accommodations should be discussed with your company in case they fall outside of the suggested hotel budget listed in their travel policy.

What if you’re not the one booking your hotel room? Speak to the person in charge of corporate travel at your company and give them a list of your preferences, such as:

• Walking/driving distance to the location(s) you need to visit for work
• Amenities like reliable wifi, secure parking, a business center, etc.
• Desired neighborhood preferences
• Hotel policy and procedure for booking with a card that is not in your name

Give Yourself Enough Time for the Unexpected

Whether you’re traveling for work or pleasure, you need to expect the unexpected.

• Flights can get canceled or delayed.
• Traffic delays can prevent you from getting to a meeting on time.
• The airline could lose your bags in transit.

While these scenarios may be out of your control, you can give yourself a bit more breathing room to react and recover by doing these things:

• Instead of flying into the city the same day as your meeting, fly in the night before.
• If you’ve booked a red-eye flight, try to give yourself enough time to catch up on sleep before your first meeting.
• Driving to your meeting? Give yourself a bit more time in case traffic is bad or parking is difficult.
• Book a direct flight whenever possible. It will help you avoid missing connections and get you to your destination more quickly.

By following these tips, you’ll arrive on time, feel fully rested, and be stress-free so you can perform at your best!

Plan Your Sightseeing AFTER Important Meetings

If you’re a long-time reader, you’ll know I’m all about maximizing my work trips by using them to help me explore more of the world.

While work travel isn’t a vacation, if you’re smart with your time and plan ahead, you can squeeze in a weekend trip or quick adventure by simply extending your business trip by an extra day or two.

The trick here is to always plan your sightseeing after your meetings or when the conference you’re attending has ended. Give yourself the time to solely focus on your work so you can show up and be 100% focused on the tasks at hand.

Then, when work is over, reward yourself!

Book that NYC food tour of your dreams. Go on a short hike up Ensign Peak in Salt Lake City , or spend an afternoon wandering around the Desert Botanical Garden in Tempe, Arizona.

Just don’t go too crazy with your itinerary. Give yourself ample time to explore without rushing, and keep your sight-seeing goals reasonable, because exploring after work trips usually doesn’t leave you with as much time as if you were just going on vacation.

I promise if you dial back a bit, you’ll enjoy the whole experience more, and you’ll have some time to reset before you’re back at work.

And who knows? You could stumble onto a gem you didn’t know about and would have missed if you stuck to a super rigid itinerary.

Don’t Ditch Your Healthy Eating & Workout Habits

When you travel, it’s easy to accidentally skip a meal here or there with all the running around, or order a super decadent meal because it’s quick and easy (and you’re likely not paying for it).

While indulging in fast food and networking cocktails is all fine and well (and often comes with the territory of entertaining clients and attending events), moderation is key – especially if you’re on the go often!

As a business traveler, you need to fuel your body with things that will make you feel good and maintain your energy levels whenever possible. If you don’t, you might feel sluggish in meetings, and your motivation will plummet before the end of the day, making it hard to concentrate and do your job.

Here are my tips for staying healthy while on the road:

• Don’t skip breakfast. You need to give your body enough energy to last throughout the day, and breakfast is especially important if you’re normally a breakfast eater when you’re home. When ordering your meal, choose something like granola and yogurt, or eggs and turkey bacon, instead of a pastry. Sugary treats don’t give you long-term energy, and you’ll crash from your high before it’s time for lunch.
• Stay hydrated. I always travel with a reusable water bottle, and I bring it wherever I go throughout the day. Lots of conference setups will typically have water refill stations anyway, and you can feel good about skipping the unnecessary plastic if you’ve already brought your own.
• Keep snacks in your bag. Not all airline food is great, and some meetings mentally drain you before lunchtime. Keep a few snacks like protein bars in your bag to munch on throughout your business trip. It will keep you satiated and stop you from spending money on overpriced airport food.
• Research nearby cafes and restaurants. You’re less likely to opt for some Taco Bell if you have a list of healthy eating options at your fingertips. Before your work trip, spend some time researching nearby eateries with healthier menu options for lunches and dinners on the days you don’t have work commitments.
• Try not to skip workouts. Before you start the day, a solid workout can clear your mind, help you sleep better, and keep your fitness goals on track. If your hotel comes with a gym, use it. If it doesn’t, log onto YouTube or turn to pretty much any online bodyweight-only workout program.

Pace Yourself at Work Events

When you’re having after-work drinks in a new city, it’s tempting to have more than one.

That’s totally cool, but remember – alcohol and a good night’s rest don’t mix.

It’s long been said that the effects of alcohol significantly reduce the quality of sleep and the amount of time spent in REM.

REM is a mentally restorative type of sleep, and when you’re traveling for work, you want to maximize your time there as much as possible.

I know when I’m away on a business trip, my days are usually packed with back-to-back meetings. The only way I can get through those days is by having a good 7-hour sleep and keeping my night outs short and to a minimum.

If your meetings are out of the way though, by all means, treat yourself on the last night in a new city!

Packing for Business Travel Tips

To end things off, here are some quick packing tips to always keep in mind as a corporate traveler:

• Try to stick to carry on only when possible
• Invest in a sharp-looking purse or tote that can be used both for travel and for meetings
• Pack any items you need to help you fall asleep faster (eye masks, melatonin, earplugs, etc.)
• Pack clothes that don’t wrinkle easily
• Use garment bags to help keep items wrinkle-free, and shoe bags to avoid accidentally dirtying your clothes
• Bring back-ups of important meeting resources (have copies of your presentation on a USB or Google Drive, pack extra business cards, etc)

Business Travel FAQ

• Can I deduct my business travel expenses? Yes, you can. However, you need to check with your employer or whoever helps you with your taxes to confirm what is and isn’t covered.
• What business jobs allow you to travel? In most industries, sales reps and client-facing contributors usually travel the most to attend client meetings and build up relationships. But, all kinds of career paths can have travel perks. Marketers often attend conferences and set up events, specialists in various fields have their annual trade shows, and consultants often hop on planes to visit their customers in person. Looking for something more remote with added travel flexibility? Consider one of these 18 careers that you can do 100% remotely from anywhere in the world. 
• What is good business travel etiquette? Good business travel etiquette is observing and practicing cultural and social norms and representing your personal brand and your company’s with poise wherever you go. It also includes the same principles you’d follow when in the office – showing up on time, preparing your notes, dressing appropriately, and treating your colleagues with respect. 
• What is business travel accident insurance? Business travel insurance is a plan that protects employees who travel for work domestically or internationally. It usually covers occupational and non-occupational accidents and health cover while traveling on company business. Consult your travel policy or ask your employer if this will be available to you when you travel.

How to Ease Back into Traveling for Work

• Elizabeth Grace Saunders

Four strategies for your next business trip.

Transitioning back into business travel after the Covid-19 pandemic isn’t as simple as buying a plane ticket. Individuals are having to remember how to pack efficiently, adjust to time zone changes, and modify their meeting schedules — and that’s on top of monitoring differences in travel restrictions, quarantine requirements, and Covid risk levels throughout the world.

Use these strategies to transition back into work travel. First, evaluate the benefit. Think carefully about where you believe travel would add the greatest benefit versus working remotely. Second, right size the investment. Even as you’re able to fold more business travel into your schedule, question whether all the travel you used to do really needs to be added back in. Third, pace yourself by starting small, and then building up after you see how you feel. Finally, leave margin. If you’ve got important business travel, give yourself more flexibility than you used to do, and make sure you have access to everything you need, like food and car rentals.

In 2020, with the introduction of Covid-19 restrictions, travel dramatically dropped domestically and internationally, with business travel down by 90% at the lowest point in the year. Now, as more and more individuals are returning to the office, work travel is coming back. But it’s not all clear skies. As a time management coach, I’ve seen that returning to business travel can be almost as disorienting after a two-year hiatus as the sudden lurch into fully remote work was. My clients are having to remember how to pack efficiently, adjust to time zone changes, and modify their meeting schedules when they’re now on the road for work.

All too often, these are quick jaunts that can blur together into an endless parade of hotel ballrooms, bland conference rooms and chain restaurants.

The pandemic has reshaped many things about travel, including the length and frequency of work trips.

But what about their level of fun? (Yes, fun!)

I've always tried to add a little bit of "local" to each of my work trips as a way to break up what can otherwise be a monotonous slog from city to city. These days, I find myself doubling down on those efforts to try to make my work travel just a little bit more exciting.

So how do I do it? Here are my tips for getting the most out of your business trips.

Always pack a bathing suit

A quick dip in the hotel pool or hot tub can transform a stuffy trip into a mini vacation. OK, that might be overstating it — but at the very least, it can help reset your frame of mind.

I find that the act of taking off my work clothes and putting on a bathing suit forces me to stop thinking about my job for a few minutes. You can swim a few laps and get the blood flowing, or slip into the hot tub and ease those sore traveling muscles.

Try to pack a bathing suit that you know dries fast. Add in a plastic bag, too, just in case it doesn't. Yes, this is one more thing for your suitcase , but bringing it can help inject a bit of relaxation into your trip.

Get outside

It's all too easy to remain in our travel bubbles. Between taxis, airports and meeting rooms, we forget that we are not actually getting any fresh air.

For me, the best way to get to know a new city is to go on a run. But not everybody enjoys running. That's OK. There are other ways to enjoy your surroundings.

On a recent trip to Florida , I was still recovering from an injury and couldn't go on my run. So, I woke up early each day and went for a sunrise walk on the beach.

It wasn't a giant walk, but it gave me just enough time to enjoy the ocean breeze, hear the waves crash and clear my mind.

The rest of my days were spent in meetings, but I at least felt like I was getting a little bit of a beach trip in.

Be smart about upgrades

I usually don't care about hotel suite upgrades on business trips. Sure they are nice, but I'm typically by myself and not spending tons of time in the room itself.

But I've recently been paying more attention to the car I rent.

First off, I almost always rent a car even if other people love relying on Lyft and Uber. Having a car forces me to not have my head buried in my phone. I need to look out the window, see what's around, pay attention to directions and get a sense of an area.

I have elite status with all three big car rental agencies and love to pick my own vehicle with Hertz and National . And on my recent Florida trip, I noticed that a convertible was shockingly only $10 more a day than a standard ride. For my two-day trip with sunny skies and spring-like weather, it was well worth the added expense.

I didn't have a ton of time to drive, but when I did, each ride felt like a mini adventure.

Try local restaurants

My final tip is probably the most obvious one but also the most important: Sample local food.

If you don't know a good spot, ask your business contacts, the hotel bartender or just about anybody you come across.

It's easy to get trapped in an endless parade of airport lounge cheese cubes or bland burgers at chain restaurants. Too easy. So, put a little bit of effort in to find something different.

With a group, you can still have a good time without feeling like your meal is the same as the last 20 you've had on the road.

If traveling alone , I usually dine at the restaurant's bar, as it's where I often have interesting conversations with others eating there. They are usually locals, and I learn something new from them.

Bottom line

A business trip is never going to be a vacation. But with a little bit of time and planning, you can transform another dreary road trip into something that feels a little less robotic.

At the end of the day, all you have to do is just shift your mindset slightly and do a little research before heading out. Trust me, it's worth it.

• What to pack for a same-day work trip
• Tips for taking a one-day work trip
• Final thoughts on a one-day business trip

I was recently presented with the opportunity to take a one-day business trip. I departed in the morning to St. Louis from Newark Airport, and returned home before my bedtime.

As a woman in my mid-thirties, I am glad to travel halfway across the US for a single in-person meeting, and go home to sleep in my own bed the same night.

How do you take a same-day business trip, though? Is there any secret hack or tip I needed to uncover? How do you survive the early morning flight, the late night return and looking fresh and put-together in between?

Take it from me: I first researched the other tips out there from business travelers who nailed the one-day business trip, and these are my best suggestions of how to do it and what to pack.

What to pack for a same-day work trip

Packing for a same-day work trip isn’t hard, but I thought through it a few times. Here’s what I went with, from the bag I strategically chose to the back-up smart items I packed in there.

Your business travel bag or luggage

While business travel websites and pro business travelers out there recommend a short carry-on suitcase like the Daily Carry-On from Away , I found it perfectly appropriate to take a professional laptop travel backpack.

I swear by the Bivy Tote Backpack from Troubadour , which is my dedicated work backpack for when I head into the my Manhattan office.

Shop the deal

With room for a laptop and a central cavity that fits a slim packing cube , accessories and chargers, it was a no-brainer to take this awesome travel backpack on my business trip.

I was considering taking the Troubadour Adventure Carrier tote , which I also have in my closet, but decided that I didn’t want to be stressing either one of my shoulders during all that walking through airports. I’ll use this lovely and spacious tote for another occasion.

I chose the Bivy backpack for my one-day trip in order to manage weight on my shoulders effectively while walking through airports twice in one day. Here’s what it looks like.

Travel (waist pack) accessory bag

I’ve mentioned in other gear articles of ours that I really like having a waist pack during travel days. During a same-day business trip, you do quite a bit of travel in just a few hours!

Shop my picks

Great for stylish women travelers (or men travelers!), it can be worn in a cute “waist” location rather than at your hip.

It fits all my daily “stuff” from hand cream, hand sanitizer, keys, cards, wallet and phone, to more random items like even an entire water bottle.

I appreciate its sleek, expandable design and multiple pockets, ideal for daily essentials and travel, with a stylish silver buckle adding a touch of elegance.

On this trip, I took the Public Rec Belt Bag , which I used both in its fanny pack method and its sling bag setup. I find this bag is to be so convenient for keeping my passport, wallet, phone and AirPods handy and close to my body. I keep it in my lap during the flight as well.

Work items to pack

Make sure to take your work laptop, laptop case (I use a simple neoprene one I bought on my own) and your laptop cable or charger. I usually pack these the night before.

One tip is to make sure you don’t take your personal laptop instead of your work computer, as that would be an unfortunate mistake. Pack these while you’re not in a rush, ideally not in the minutes before you’re running out the door.

Other travel accessories

In addition to the standard “travel things” like a phone cable and an external battery pack or power bank (great for when you have an old plane with no outlets!), you could consider bringing compression socks for the flight and a neck pillow (I recommend this easy one from BCozzy ).

You’ll also want a reusable travel water bottle! Pack the one you’d take on any trip. I recommend the YETI or the S’well bottles . Fill up your bottle at a water fountain before you board your inbound flight, so that you’re not parched and tired upon arrival.

Toiletries to bring

When leaving home for just a day, you might think, do I need toiletries?

I opted for “yes” on this question, after reading some recommendations of bringing a toothbrush and travel-sized toothpaste for these reasons:

• So that you can freshen up by brushing, after a flight, if you fall asleep and feel groggy
• In the rare case that your return flight is cancelled, you’ll be glad to had a spare toothbrush and toothpaste

I also brought aromatherapy scented travel-sized hand cream for battling the dryness of the plane, plus having an attempt at smelling nice before my meeting. I packed one tube of mascara as a quick makeup fix, one lip balm and one mini Vaseline , also to combat airplane dryness.

One more thing: a last-minute item I threw in my backpack was a travel-sized hairbrush to use post-flight in case I looked messy.

For men, you could consider bringing a beard comb or small set of travel-sized grooming items .

If you often perspire during flights, or just tend to feel smelly, opt to bring along deodorant and apply it either in the airplane bathroom before the descent, or in an airport bathroom right when you arrive.

Clothing, accessories and shoes

As my trip was during the fall, I was lucky to be able to wear a sweater as my casual top that doubled as a layer on the flight and a base that I could “dress up” before landing.

How did I do my “dressing up before landing?”

I packed a set of a matching necklace and bracelet that I could put on, along with a solid-colored pashmina that could add a pop of color to what I was wearing (which was dark jeans and gray Allbirds Pipers ).

I also expertly applied mascara as the plane was landing, by using my phone as a mirror. Luckily, I did fine.

I should mention I also wore my black leather band travel watch by Victorinox , which is always a classy item to have on my wrist in professional environments.

In a small packing cube , I packed one extra pair of underwear and one extra top, along with a pair of leggings, for two possible reasons:

• In case I wanted a change of clothes for the flight home the same night
• For the same reason of (in a rare case) my return flight getting cancelled and my needing to spend a night in my destination

Tips for taking a one-day work trip

Remember: this business travel guide is for anyone taking a work trip that lasts only one calendar day, not a 24-hour trip that involves one night in a hotel. I’ve recently done one of those as well, and the difference is that you really do require a whole night’s worth of things.

For anything I mention here, it’s in regard to leaving in the morning, going to a meeting or event out of town, and coming back the same night. I’m not really speaking to red-eye flights , which would start the night before and get you into your destination in the morning, essentially. The tips here speak to waking up at a “more or less” normal morning time and getting home before midnight the same day.

Here are my best tips for making your trip successful and not getting too tired!

Get a good night of rest the night before

I really recommend trying to go to bed at 9, 10 or 11 pm the night before your same-day work trip, depending on if you have a 6, 7 or 8 am flight.

I had a 9:30 am flight out of an airport not too far from where I live, so I lucked out. I went to bed around 11 pm the night before (and of course didn’t sleep very well because I always fear I’ll miss my early morning alarm!). I left home a little after 7, and was already through security and grabbing a latte 45 minutes later.

Check into both your flights the day before

Because your flights are both on the same calendar day, you can check in online the day before you leave and save a lot of time at the airport.

Perfect that one-day work trip packing list

Despite being such a brief trip, as you can see from the packing I did above, you may be challenged by fitting all these “what-if” items into only a backpack or mini carry-on.

Pack your trip bag beforehand

Pack your entire carry-on or backpack the night before your trip and make a short list of the finishing touches for the morning. For me, this list tends to be my phone charger, phone, battery backup power bank and a few other things.

Keep in touch with colleagues or clients

If your flight is delayed, or even if it takes off early, ping your coworkers also traveling or your client/partner on the ground at your destination to let them know your status.

I texted my coworkers as soon as I landed, and we texted the business partners with whom we’d be meeting, nearly immediately, to tell them our ETA at the office campus.

Have a freshen-up plan

For me, my plan was to put on my jewelry, fix my hair and have my makeup done before landing, as I was meeting colleagues immediately in the airport and heading right to the meeting with another company!

Your plan could look different. Think about if your tight schedule allows time to change clothes in an airport bathroom, have a meal before picking up your rental car, etc., so that you can have a game plan.

Regarding meals, we’re talking about that in just a second!

Make sure to eat on the way in

Luckily, I picked up both breakfast and snacks at airport shops in the morning and ate enough to hold myself over for a while, as well as have snacks for the afternoon if food wasn’t available or being planned. Truth is, you never know if others came from having lunch and assume everyone has eaten.

It was fortunate that I prepped in this way because I headed with colleagues to our meeting, forty minutes outside the city we landed in, and we wound up not going out to lunch for another two and a half hours. If I hadn’t been able to sneak a snack, I would’ve been starving!

(As you can see here, I’m a bit of a health nut, and I focus on nutrient-rich foods full of protein and fiber on travel days. I try to avoid chips and pure sugar junk as long as possible.)

Be communicative about your time frame

What with departing the same night back home, keep your coworkers and business partners at the meeting or event informed of your departure timeline so that no one encounters any stress.

We were in luck that we went out to a business lunch after meetings were done, and our timeline for getting in an Uber and being en route to the local airport for the flight home was absolutely perfect.

Plan around that flight back home

Sleeping in your own bed tonight is surely the end goal, so make it a priority to not miss that flight back to your origin airport!

Calculate the distance between where you’ll be spending the day, to the airport, so that you can get through security and to your gate on time. Hopefully you’ve had a chance by then to have a successful business meeting or event, and even sample some local cuisine!

For me, I went right from the airport to a meeting at an office campus in a suburb, and then went right back to the airport with coworkers to make our return flight to NYC .

Prepare for delays

This is standard travel advice and also standard business travel advice, of course. Would you ever know it? While I was with colleagues waiting for our flight home to board, we got a notification from the airline app that our flight was delayed more than 90 minutes.

I had a moment of agony and then was thankful I wasn’t alone, but surely could’ve been if I had been heading to a different home airport than the others.

Fortunately, there were food options nearby, as well as WiFi. Eventually, our delayed flight wound up being able to board earlier than expected and we made a mad dash for that!

Final thoughts on a one-day business trip

I think my same-day work trip went fairly well, considering that I did travel halfway across the US and return home in the same period of less than 16 hours. Air travel really never ceases to amaze me for how it gets you from Point A to Point B, so fast .

A few things that brought me success were staying relaxed, keeping an eye on the time and knowing that I had everything with me that I needed in case of an unexpected scenario.

I hope your same-day trip for business goes swimmingly and that these recommendations were good reminders of what you can do!

Her Packing List

Packing Lists

Ultimate female packing list for a minimalist business trip.

The following packing list for a minimalist business trip was submitted by Rachel. See all packing lists .

When I first started traveling for work , I may have appeared a little high maintenance… I packed my life into a roller bag, a giant computer bag, and my purse. I imagined myself as Legally Blonde ’s Elle Woods when I showed up to the TSA line , teetering on too-tall heels, my matching pink luggage in tow.

After being on the road for much of the last three years, my attitude, gear, and how I travel has changed dramatically : now I’m less Legally Blonde , and more Catch Me if You Can . For work I travel about 30 percent of the time to different client sites, enough so my inner adventurer gets excited about the boutique hotel and off-the-beaten-path restaurant, but not too much where I forget where I traveled last week.

My Lightbulb Moment

About two years ago, I took a trip with a colleague to Los Angeles over four days. On the way back to the airport, I noticed she didn’t have a roller bag or duffle. She only carried a Northface backpack and large purse. I asked where her bag was, concerned she forgot it. She responded with, “I only ever bring a backpack and a purse . If I can’t pack it in here I don’t need it.”

I was incredulous! I had never heard of anyone doing that. It. Blew. My. Mind. I thought maybe there’s something to it and challenged myself to give it a try .

On the next several trips I made a conscious effort to bring less stuff . No I don’t need five pairs of shoes. No I don’t need my bathing suit and towel for the hotel pool. No I don’t need a suit and a change of clothes for each day and an extra outfit—just in case. You get the picture.

I gained momentum and thought about what else I could cut, analyzing what I didn’t use and leaving anything unused behind on the next trip. I discovered packing cubes , blogs about traveling light , and new ideas sparked. I soon fit everything in my Northface and carried a purse with room to spare. Then I hit a wall…

I loved the freedom from carrying so little . BUT I didn’t feel or look particularly professional carrying a bright yellow backpack. I started looking around at airports at the different consultants on the road and saw men and women in backpacks that looked professional and comfortable . I made mental notes of brands, shapes, sizes, colors, material, etc. I quoted backpack facts to my husband whose eyes started to glaze over any time I pulled up the REI website or eBags or whichever was my favorite of the moment. Then I found the one.

>>Read the female packing guide to working from the road .

What I Pack Now

Now I pack everything in my purse and Timbuk2 Jet Laptop Pack (review coming soon). It is 30 liters of organization and compartmentalization so I know where everything is and can reach it at a moment’s notice.

A couple of the things I really like from a work travel perspective are its clean look and it fits under the seat in front of you on most airplanes. You can carry it both as a backpack and as a briefcase, and it has a separate laptop compartment. I can carry everything I need and have room for more if I pick up something new in my travels.

On the plane, I will typically dress in jeans, cardigan, and my flats (which match both my suit and casual attire). I plan my tops so when my meeting ends I can swap the skirt for jeans and be ready for a casual night around town or for a glass of wine with a colleague.

I’ll use jewelry to dress my outfits up or down, as it’s a great way to change the feel of an outfit in an instant without taking up much space in my bag.

>>Check out this versatile 16L minimalist packing list .

My Packing List for a Minimalist Business Trip:

• Toiletries : razor, face lotion, comb, floss, toothpaste, toothbrush, deodorant, q-tips, nail kit, Kleenex, spare contacts + contact solution , face wash, menstrual cup , and depending on the hotel, shampoo and conditioner. Often times, if I know the hotel will have decent toiletries, I’ll change out what I bring and just use what they provide.
• Minimalist makeup kit
• Mini medical kit – Band aids, aspirin, Imodium, etc.
• Electronics: Laptop, phone, chargers
• Travel coffee mug
• Water bottle
• Pen set: I like color options
• Scarf: for warmth and fashion
• Book or Nook depending on the length of the trip
• 1 suit skirt and jacket (or packable blazer )
• 1 pair jeans
• 1 workout outfit
• 1 sleep outfit
• 1 pair of tennis shoes
• 1 pair of flats
• 1, 2, or 3 dress shirts (one shirt for the number of nights I’m gone)
• 1 pair underwear for each night
• 1 pair pantyhose for each meeting

Overall, my way of seeing the world has changed because of what I pack. I glide through airports in a way I didn’t before. If I’m running late I’m confident that I can physically run to the gate.

I am more hands free, and when I want access to something, I know exactly where it is. And, because I’m packing in the same way each trip with similar items, I pack faster with more consistency.

Even with what I bring, I could still cut back if I needed. With each trip I continue to experiment with the combination of items I bring, and I look forward to perfecting the system and learning how others do the same.

This is so great – I went to Italy for almost three weeks with just a carryon and it was SO FREEING. But I still had too much stuff. I’ve come a long way from my younger years when I’d carry full-size toiletries items and a massive suitcase full of “options.” Now I know better and I know I’ve got favorite pieces and I should just take those. It’s way easier to just have a few things to choose from and it’s so easy to move from place to place when my bag is light and small.

August 10, 2017 at 12:07 pm

Hi, thanks a lot for this insight 😀 Honestly, it’s always like: oh I need, this and this and that and in the end you only end up using a few things, that would even have fitted into a tiny bag. One question I have to you: how do you keep your tops without wrinkles?

April 21, 2019 at 1:23 am

I lay my tops or blouses on my bed and fold each one carefully, smoothing as I go. It’s really a matter of practice. But here’s the good part! Once folded, slide the blouse or top into a one gallon zip lock bag, One top to a bag. Without moving the bag around too much, or lifting it, I suck the air out of the bag and seal it. With practice, this makes an airtight parcel that keeps the shirts smooth. I’ve even been able to slide the bag across the room without disturbing the contents, as long as the seal is unbroken! I hope this works for you!

January 7, 2020 at 7:26 pm

I’m a big believer in rolling your tops. I also tend to pick fabrics which don’t wrinkle much anyway. Lastly when I’m in my room, the first thing I do is unpack everything, hang it, and if it looks wrinkled at all, use either the hotel iron or a fun trick I learned. In the morning when you are showering, hang whatever is wrinkled in the room with you and make sure the door is closed. The heat from the shower steams up the room as well as your clothes -essentially steaming out all the wrinkles! Hope that helps!

10 Best U.S. Cities for Workcations

Combine work (or school) and vacation for the ultimate workcation in one of these U.S. cities.

Evie Carrick is a writer and editor who’s lived in five countries and visited well over 50. She now splits her time between Colorado and Paris, ensuring she doesn't have to live without skiing or L'As du Fallafel.

The era of cubicles and water-cooler chitchat as we once knew it feels like a world away, even despite the fact that some employers are insisting on returning to office life, whether full-time or with a hybrid schedule. These days, many people in the U.S. are still clocking in from home and wearing their favorite cozy PJs well into the afternoon. While being able to stay home is a luxury in itself, as anyone who has worked remotely before knows, the best thing about working from home is that you don't actually have to work from home . As long as the Wi-Fi is reliable and your computer is charged, you can conduct your business from a hotel room, Airbnb, beach, mountaintop, or poolside cabana . Enter a recent trend — workcations — which brings together two things that always seem to be at odds with one another: work and vacation.

What are workcations?

The concept of workcations involves being able to log-in remotely from anywhere on earth while enjoying the places you're working from during your off-hours as if you were on vacation. It's an interesting mix of flexibility and obligation, though you'll have more control over the places you consider to be "your office" during working hours, as well as the freedom to get out there and sightsee as soon as you clock out — or even before you clock in, if that's how the time difference shakes out. In a way, it's like working from your favorite vacation spot, though it's up to you and your boss to determine whether it's just for a short stint or more of a long-term thing.

These days, workcations are not only doable, they're enjoyable. Hotels are offering workcation packages , long-term rentals are being outfitted with desks, and destinations are making it easy for remote workers to experience life in their world.

That said, some U.S. cities and locales are just a little better equipped and more welcoming for those seeking workcations than others, providing plenty of amenities and speedy internet (as you'd expect), as well as easy access to certain things we look for in a vacation: white-sand beaches, skiing, amazing food, and a relaxing escape.

Seattle, Washington

Gautier Houba/Travel + Leisure

Seattle is the sort of place you can wander around for hours — after you've finished your work, of course. Cruise down the eight-and-a-half-mile Seattle Waterfront Pathway and enjoy the views of Elliott Bay, or check out some of the things this city is known for, like Chihuly Garden and Glass and the Space Needle . And of course, no trip to Seattle is complete without a stop at Pike Place Market , which is just a five-minute walk from the wonderfully central Fairmont Olympic Hotel .

On the weekend, make the drive to Mount Rainier National Park or Olympic National Park — both are about two hours away by car.

Phoenix, Arizona

It doesn't matter when you visit Phoenix, the city is always welcoming and warm — literally — and that goes for those doing workcations, too. Book a stay at the uber-hip Found:Re Phoenix Hotel to enjoy easy access to downtown Phoenix and the Japanese Friendship Garden , or try out Hyatt's "Work From Hyatt" package at the Hyatt Regency Scottsdale Resort & Spa at Gainey Ranch or the Royal Palms Resort & Spa , where you'll find private work areas and speedy internet.

When you're ready to explore, check out urban hiking, available at nearby Camelback Mountain , McDowell Mountain Regional Park , or South Mountain Park & Preserve . Cruise around on the city's Hopr bike and scooter share network or plan a day trip to Saguaro National Park , home of giant saguaro cacti and ancient petroglyphs.

Aspen, Colorado

We're betting that a trip to Aspen has always been on your bucket list, so if not now, when? You can kick it at The St. Regis Aspen Resort in downtown Aspen, located just a few blocks from Aspen Mountain , or escape the hubbub in the neighboring village of Snowmass , located about 20 minutes from Aspen by car. Snowmass is home to the largest ski resort in the area — the Aspen Snowmass Ski Resort — with endless options for ski-in, ski-out accommodations and easy access to the great outdoors.

When you're not skiing (or working — this is supposed to be a workcation, after all), book a day at the 7,000-square-foot Spa at Viceroy Snowmass or take a hot air balloon ride for bird's-eye views of the surrounding mountains.

Honolulu, Hawaii

Honolulu is a beautiful, multicultural city that just so happens to sit right near Oahu's famous Waikiki Beach. If that wasn't reason enough to make it your dream workcation destination , the nearby islands of Kauai , Maui , Molokai , Lanai , and Hawaii Island (also called The Big Island) are all a 30- to 45-minute flight away, giving you a chance to go island hopping and see everything the Aloha State has to offer.

Rooms at The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Waikiki Beach come with full kitchens, a work space, and washer and dryer, making extended stays a million times more comfortable. Just down the beach, the 'Alohilani Resort, Waikiki Beach and Outrigger Waikiki Beach both offer spacious rooms and suites with ocean views. When you're ready to explore (beyond your luxe accommodations and Waikiki Beach, that is), the Wiliwilinui Ridge hiking trail , Honolulu Museum of Art , and historic 'Iolani Palace — the only royal palace in the United States — are all nearby.

Jackson, Wyoming

Jackson may be small, but because it's a resort town , you'll find plenty of big-city amenities. Book a room at The Lodge at Jackson Hole (just don't get too used to the daily breakfast service) or settle into a spacious two- or four-bedroom suite at the Caldera House , perfectly situated in the heart of all the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort action.

When you're not working, there's plenty to see and do. You can spend the day skiing at one of the area's three world-renowned ski resorts, check out the National Elk Refuge (home to one of the largest elk herds in the U.S.), or plan a day trip to nearby Grand Teton National Park . Foodies will want to grab a slice from Pinky G's Pizzeria (made famous by Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives ) or grab dinner at the delicious Coelette . When the weekend rolls around, the less than two hour journey to Yellowstone National Park is well worth the drive.

Sonoma, California

If a work day followed by a glass of pinot noir and a leisurely walk through a 19th-century plaza sounds appealing, a workcation in Sonoma, California , might be in the cards. Stay at the Sonoma Bungalows in downtown Sonoma — each comes with its own gourmet kitchen and open living spaces that are perfect for working (or schooling) from. Looking for a something a little more upscale? Just outside of town, is the Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa , a laid-back luxury property that's home to its own geothermal pool.

Once work and school have let out for the day, there's plenty to do. Start by visiting the animals at the Jack London State Historic Park or the Safari West wildlife preserve. Those looking to find the next great wine should head to Walt Wines , known for its pinot noir offerings, or the stunning Ledson Winery & Vineyards .

New Orleans, Louisiana

There's more to New Orleans than just jazz and Mardi Gras; it's a city with a rich history, excellent food, and plenty of things to see and do in a surprisingly small radius. Those on workcations won't be disappointed with a stay at the Residence Inn New Orleans French Quarter , where you'll be treated to a full in-suite kitchen, separate living and sleeping areas, and a hot daily breakfast.

After a day "at the office," explore the historic French Quarter on foot, book a swamp tour, or grab a po' boy from Killer Poboys . Whatever you do, don't forget to head to Café Du Monde for some beignets — NOLA's signature fried-dough-dipped-in-sugar pastry — for dessert.

Miami Beach, Florida

For a beachy escape on the mainland, Florida is hard to beat — and when you're looking for a sun-filled getaway, Miami Beach is where you'll want to be. Stay in the heart of the island city at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach , which makes that workcation feel just a little more luxe. For families taking both work and school on the road, the Shelborne South Beach offers high-speed Wi-Fi and the charm of a 1940s Art Deco building by the water.

When the work (or school) day has come to an end, there's more to do than sit on the sand. Check out The Bass Museum of Art's outdoor installations or grab a bite at Pubbelly Sushi . If you need a full-day escape, head to Everglades National Park , located just a one-hour drive from Miami Beach. While you're there, keep an eye out for alligators and turtles along the Anhinga Trail or climb the 70-foot Shark Valley Observation Tower for stunning views of the everglades.

Asheville, North Carolina

For those who enjoy being in a scenic and mountainous environment without missing out on big-city attractions like great restaurants and breweries, Asheville makes an ideal workcation spot. Whether you're into outdoor activities like hiking, cycling, fishing, and zip-lining, want to visit all your favorite places from The Hunger Games , or like touring historic homes and museums, you're bound to find something that piques your interest.

Once work is done for the day, spend some time unwinding at the Asheville Pinball Museum , where you can spoil your inner child with classic arcade games, or dig into the city's vibrant beer and cider scene at Archetype Brewing , Barn Door Ciderworks , or any of the region's other well-known establishments . History buffs and wine lovers can visit the Biltmore Estate's historic home, gardens, and winery — or, for a real treat, stay at one of its onsite accommodation offerings , the Village Hotel, The Inn, or the Cottages on Biltmore Estate. After a long workcation stint, treat yourself to a relaxing day of pampering at The Horse Shoe Farm's Stable Spa , located about 30 minutes south in Hendersonville.

Savannah, Georgia

This charming southern city offers plenty to see and do whenever you're not on the clock — picturesque streets and squares, a vibrant riverfront district, and tons of eateries and nightlife spots, just to name a few. Spend some time relaxing among the live oak trees and fountains in Forsyth Park, learning about the city's intriguing history on a ghost tour with Old Town Trolley Tours or Old Savannah Tours , wandering the beautiful but haunting Bonaventure Cemetery — featured prominently in Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil — or chilling on the beach in nearby Tybee Island .

Back in the historic city center, grab a scoop at Leopold's Ice Cream as you stroll through the walkable downtown historic district, then shop 'til you drop along River Street. Treat yourself to a classic Southern-style lunch at Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room , a cash-only spot serving favorites like fried chicken, black eyed peas, corn bread, biscuits, and okra gumbo as you dine around a large table with your fellow foodies. Stay anywhere from historic inns and B&Bs to haunted hotels like The Marshall House , Kehoe House , and the 17 Hundred 90 Inn , Savannah's oldest. Upscale (and less-likely-to-be-haunted) accommodations such as The Westin Savannah Harbor Golf Resort & Spa and The Bohemian Hotel Savannah Riverfront can be found along the scenic Savannah River.

Business trips don't have to be dull. These 4 tips will help you plan personal fun around work obligations.

• Insider spoke with three experts on how to extend a work trip to include personal travel.
• Changing accommodations and including family members will help you feel refreshed after a business trip.
• This article is part of "Work + Play," a series about blending business travel with personal experiences.

Last year, Kelly Ferraro arrived in Paris four days before the Paris Blockchain Summit where she would network and learn more about blockchain technology. She spent the extra free time sightseeing and visiting Disneyland Paris and the Eiffel Tower with her family.

By the time the summit rolled around, the cofounder and CEO of River North Communications said her body was fully adjusted to the new time zone, and she was on her "A game." 

The practice of mixing business and leisure travel is gaining popularity, especially as employers are being more flexible with remote work, but it takes some planning and communication to pull off. If you've ever thought about adding a few personal days before or after a business trip, Insider got some expert advice on how to extend a work trip to include personal travel. 

Check with your higher-ups first

If you're not self-employed, the first thing you should do is check with your higher-ups to see if adding days to a work trip is an option. "Thirty to 60 days is a fair notice period for employees," Ferraro told Insider. "If one of the folks on my team wants to enjoy an extra few days in a city like Barcelona, for instance, I need to ensure we have coverage for that period." 

Start communication with your supervisors early, and don't book any activities or additional accommodations until you've been approved. Essentially, treat your added days the same way you would a regular PTO request and follow company policy. And if there are flights involved, it's also important to discuss if your workplace will be covering all of your transportation costs. Your modified flight may cost more, and you may be asked to cover the difference. 

Consider the pros and cons of when you take your PTO

Adding days before or after a work trip have both advantages and disadvantages that need to be considered. "Given the opportunity, I prefer to have some personal days before a work event to explore and enjoy myself," Ferraro said. "Also, know your body clock and circadian rhythm, as time zone changes can affect people differently. If I'm traveling across time zones, I'm my best self when I have at least 36 hours to adjust." 

Related stories

Others treat their added days as a reward at the end of a work trip, but there is a possibility that work responsibilities can cut into your PTO time. "I generally like to add days at the end of a trip, and I always like to make sure the work gets done before I take time off to play," said Mark Herschberg, author of " The Career Toolkit , a book that offers guidance on developing professional skills. "However, if you're self-employed, or work for a company that doesn't have clear PTO boundaries, it's possible that some of your work responsibilities can cut into your vacation time."

Squarespace consultant and digital educator Tanya Moushi said she sees work trips as a way to explore places that she may not have considered before and likes to sandwich time off before and after work trips. "I recently flew to Savannah, Georgia, for work and wanted to stay an extra day to explore the city, and it was lovely. It's a place I would have never been otherwise," she said. "I recommend arriving one day before in your new city to get settled and then at least one to two days after to get a feel for the city, take the opportunity to explore, and meet people." 

Change accommodations for your leisure travel 

Though you may get a discounted rate at your work hotel, experts recommend changing accommodations for your extra days to designate between work and leisure travel. "Honestly, I try to avoid staying at the same hotel and utilize Airbnbs when possible. I like to separate myself from work when the day is done," Ferraro said. 

Though packing up and checking into a different hotel or Airbnb can be inconvenient, another thing to consider is running into coworkers at the same hotel, which may dampen the vibe of your personal travel time. 

"You may be getting a special rate at the hotel through your company, or the event may have a special rate that will be valid for a few days before or after," Herschberg said. "But be careful about staying at the same hotel if you're going to socialize and don't want your coworkers to know about it. You could easily run into coworkers in the lobby."

Consider including partners or family members 

If you're planning on including your family or a partner, the same rules apply when it comes to communicating with your employers: Start early, and be transparent. Some employees will have their families stay with them during a work trip: However, if your company allows it, think about how much time you'll be spending on work-related responsibilities with your family there. Be clear about your work responsibilities and how present you can be with your family as it may be easier to include your family members after your work trip is over. 

Also, if you decide to include family, book their flights and hotel as early as you can as hotel and flight costs can quickly escalate, and you'll be paying for these costs out of pocket. 

While there's some extra planning involved, Herschberg said that companies can build goodwill with employees by being flexible with work-sponsored travel. "Companies should recognize that travel can be taxing on employees," he said. "In addition to the physical effort of all the cabs and planes and changing time zones, there's the work and personal items piling up back at the office and at home. Letting employees tack on some personal time on trips often has little or no overhead and becomes a great perk."

5 Out of Office Examples for Traveling on a Business Trip

This post may contain affiliate links, meaning that we will receive a commission if you click through and make a purchase. All opinions are those of the author.

When you need to travel for work, you might need to set an out of office message. Out of office messages are useful if you are not available during regular work hours. This may be necessary if you are out of the office in transport, such as on an airplane without WiFi, or if you are participating in a conference and cannot be online.

Out of Office Message Requirements

Your out of office message can be as detailed as you would like, but there is one requirement for your auto reply email: state when you will be back. You do not  need to explain why you are away, however you should at least communicate when you will be able to respond to your emails. Otherwise, you can be as creative as you would like.

A typical business travel out of office email will have the following components:

• Thank the person for their email.
• Let the person know when you will be returning.
• Provide an alternate contact person or emergency contact number.
• State that you will respond to emails when you return.

Additional components of your out of office message could include:

• Whether you are checking your email, versus if you are out of the country
• Why you are currently out of the office

See some of our business trip out of office messages below.

Out of Office on a Business Trip

If you are out of the office on a business trip, you can state so in your auto reply message. If you are traveling for a client, you do not want to get too specific on the location. Instead, leave your email vague. Put your location on your corporate calendar. If your coworker needs to know where you are, they can check your calendar for details.

Thank you for your email. I am currently out of the office on a business trip, and I will be returning on [Date]. I will respond to your email upon my return. Sincerely, Michelle

The above should be the bare minimum included in your auto reply message. If there is the possibility of urgent matters coming up while you are gone, you should include a contact person or an emergency contact number in your message as well.

I am currently out of the office on a business, and I will be returning on [Date]. If your matter is urgent, please contact [Name] at [Name’s Email], or call me at [Number]. Otherwise, I will respond to your message when I return. Thanks, Michelle

Only include your phone number in your out of office message if you do not mind being reached. If you are traveling to a place without service or will be unable to talk, it is best to only leave a contact person.

Out of Office during Business Travel

Occasionally for work, you may find that you are in commute for an entire day and will have limited access to email. If many of your coworkers will wonder where you are, it may be ideal to set up an out of office message for business travel.

I am currently traveling with limited access to email. If you need immediate assistance, please contact [Contact]. Otherwise, I will respond to your email as soon as possible. Thanks, Michelle

You might also be traveling to work, but find yourself at a client with a poor Wifi connection. While you are working, many of your coworkers may be wondering why you do not appear online, or why you are taking longer than usual to respond. In these circumstances, you might want an auto reply message similar to the following:

I am currently on-site with limited access to Wifi. If your matter is urgent, please contact [Contact] or call me at [Number]. Thanks, Michelle

Out of Office Attending a Conference

If you are on a conference business trip, mentioning the conference in your out of office can be beneficial. If a client who is also attending the conference emails you, your client may notice the opportunity to meet up with you.

Thank you for your email. I am currently at the Tableau Conference in Las Vegas, with limited access to email. I will be returning on [Date]. If you need immediate assistance, please contact me on my cell at [Number]. Sincerely, Michelle

Auto Reply Messages for Business Travel

Depending on your company culture, your out of office messages may be more casual or fun. However, if you work in professional services, it is best to keep your auto reply messages as fluff-free and simple as possible. State that you will be out, say when you will be back, and include what to do if it is an emergency.

Best tech to take on a trip for remote work

These gadgets are an essential addition to your suitcase if you are planning a holiday packed with both fun and work..

Adding various devices ensures a hassle-free journey by knowing you can set up your ‘office’ anywhere worldwide.

Unsure which tech items will have you working and playing hard on your vacation abroad? Take a look at a few gadgets to pack for your trip .

Gear to add to your luggage

The digital nomad life can be an exciting adventure, but the wrong digital equipment can make or break your remote work endeavours. Here are a few key players to add to your suitcase:

• Power bank – If you want to add a few hours to your work day, airport layovers are the perfect time to utilise those pesky waiting times. A power bank is a nifty item to ensure your gadgets are juiced up with power on the go.
• Noise-cancelling headphones – From babies wailing onboard to noisy holiday neighbours, there is an abundance of loud interruptions that might hinder your remote work progress. A pair of these headphones will also be a great addition if you plan to take many online calls and meetings.
• Hotspot router – There is nothing more infuriating than slow Wi-Fi. This is why a hotspot router is a vital item to pack to ensure you’ll always be up and running online. Just remember to purchase this product with sufficient data for your holiday duration.
• Laptop or tablet – While this is a no-brainer, it’s important to pack a digital device that meets your specific needs abroad. From long battery life to lightweight features, there are a few additions to look out for if you plan to buy a product specifically for your travels.

Tips for packing tech for your travels

While it might be tempting to simply take your laptop and go on a wild adventure with the idea of working online on your travels, navigating it can be tricky. Take a look at a few essential tricks to make your remote work trip a breeze to handle:

• Remember your adaptors – If you plan to travel internationally, your power plug might look different from your device charger’s. Be sure to do your research beforehand and pack the necessary adapter to keep your remote work hub up and running.
• Wrap your digital devices – Travel can sometimes be bumpy, potentially damaging your gadgets. Purchase a protective sleeve to add cushioning for safety.
• Consider travel insurance with gadget coverage – While this might seem like an unnecessary addition, it can be an idea to mull over if you’re planning to travel with expensive gear. This way, you’ll be assured you’re covered when your precious cargo gets damaged or stolen.

Russian defence ministry said on Saturday its air defence forces shot down four U.S.-produced long-range missiles over the Crimea peninsular, weapons known as Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) that Washington has shipped to Ukraine in recent weeks.

Russia launched an overnight drone attack on Ukraine's Kharkiv and Dnipro regions, injuring at least six people and hitting critical infrastructure, commercial and residential buildings, regional officials said on Saturday.

The rising dark side of business travel ceos need to pay attention to.

• Share to Facebook
• Share to Twitter
• Share to Linkedin

It's time for companies to rethink their approach to business travel.

The business landscape has rapidly changed since the pandemic, with remote work and hybrid models becoming more prominent. Despite these workforce shifts, one aspect remains constant: business travel.

Business travel is back in full force following an expected dip during the pandemic. Corporate travel budgets are returning to pre-pandemic levels, and more companies are planning budget expansions. A Morgan Stanley survey revealed that over two-thirds of companies with under $1 billion in annual revenue anticipated increased travel budgets in the coming year.

The Impact of Frequently Flying

Frequent travel can significantly impact an individual's physical, emotional, and mental well-being . While companies prioritize conventional risk management areas, they often overlook the personal well-being of their travelers. From maintaining a healthy diet to proper sleep and various emotional components such as loneliness and separation, business travelers encounter numerous potential long-term health disruptions that non-traveling employees don't face.

Business travelers had higher claims than non-travelers for all health conditions across the board, along with a higher likelihood of stress-related disorders, as reported in the Harvard Business Review . Lastly, as shared in the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine , frequent business travel adversely affects overall body composition, leading to risks of obesity and various other ailments if left unmanaged, such as heart disease and diabetes.

More and more companies are prioritizing workplace wellness due to factors such as obesity's $400 billion impact on companies . Corporate travel wellness programs are a necessary part of the equation as well. As you look to implement a modern and more robust travel wellness program, start with these two areas:

Best High-Yield Savings Accounts Of 2024

Best 5% interest savings accounts of 2024, embrace bleisure travel.

When attracting and retaining the best people, more and more employees choose lifestyle over salary . It's not out of laziness. It's out of a desire for work-life integration. With this in mind, organizations can embrace employees' desires through bleisure . Organizations can promote work-life integration and rejuvenation by allowing employees to combine business trips with leisure activities.

Implementing flexible travel policies that enable team members to extend their trips on the back end is a way to improve employee satisfaction, productivity, and retention rates. Research shows that 89% of business travelers wanted to add a private holiday to their business trips. Traveling for work is energetically demanding, physically and mentally. A few extra days for leisure allow team members to process their trip, recharge, and return at total capacity.

Treat Your Employees Like Athletes

Just as professional athletes require careful management of their physical, emotional, and mental well-being , so do business travelers. Business travel is a stressor with a high burnout rate and decreased performance across the board. As you revamp your corporate wellness travel program, consider your approach to business travel as a sports team thinks of traveling to play an away game.

As you prepare the company playbook for healthier and more productive business traveling, consider the following:

• Providing support for handling jet lag
• Offering advice on maintaining healthy sleep and nutritional habits away from home
• Investing in business class and non-stop flights
• Providing hotels that have conducive amenities for optimal well-being
• Ensuring team members reside in centrally located hotels or apartment hotels

Business travel isn't going anywhere anytime soon, as the average business traveler takes roughly 6.8 trips per year, with business travel in the U.S. from domestic and international travelers also accounting for $387 billion in annual revenue, according to research shared over at Zippia . Incorporating travel wellness initiatives isn't merely an expense; it's an investment in employees' health and performance.

As organizations revamp their corporate travel programs, prioritizing their travelers' well-being is paramount. By implementing strategies to support travel wellness, companies can ensure that their employees remain healthy, engaged, and effective representatives of their companies.

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (AP) — U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Monday that Israel must still do more to increase the flow of humanitarian aid into the besieged Gaza Strip and that he would use his Middle East trip — his seventh to the region since the Israel-Hamas war started in October — to press that case with Israeli leaders.

Speaking at events in Saudi Arabia’s capital, Blinken said the best way to ease the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza would be to conclude an elusive cease-fire agreement , which also would release Israeli hostages held by Hamas since its Oct. 7 attacks launched the war. Hamas has been presented with an “extraordinarily generous” offer by Israel that he hoped the group would accept, he said.

“Hamas has before it a proposal that is extraordinarily, extraordinarily generous on the part of Israel, and in this moment, the only thing standing between the people of Gaza and cease-fire is Hamas ,” he said at a World Economic Forum gathering in Riyadh.

“They have to decide, and they have to decide quickly. So, we’re looking to that, and I’m hopeful that they will make the right decision and we can have a fundamental change in the dynamic,” Blinken said.

Although talks continue, Hamas has so far balked at a series of offers negotiated by Egypt, Qatar and the United States and agreed to by Israel. Even without a deal, Blinken said it was critical to improve conditions in Gaza now.

“We’re also not waiting on a cease-fire to take the necessary steps to meet the needs of civilians in Gaza,” Blinken told Gulf Cooperation Council foreign ministers earlier Monday, when he arrived in Saudi Arabia for the first stop on his Middle East tour, which includes stops in Jordan and Israel on Tuesday and Wednesday.

“We have seen measurable progress in the last few weeks, including the opening of new crossings and increased volume of aid delivery to Gaza and within Gaza, and the building of the U.S. maritime corridor, which will open in the coming weeks. But it is not enough. We still need to get more aid in and around Gaza,” he said.

He said safety for humanitarian relief workers must be improved and that there’s a focus on ensuring the aid is making a proper impact for Palestinian civilians.

Scores of relief workers have been killed since the conflict began, and an Israeli attack on a World Central Kitchen convoy in Gaza this month that killed seven aid workers only highlighted the dangers and difficulties of protecting them. Israel has said the strike was a mistake and has disciplined officials involved .

World Central Kitchen said it would resume operations in Gaza on Monday after a four-week suspension.

Blinken, who also is meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman on Monday, has his work cut out for him.

The war in Gaza has ground on with little end in sight: More than 34,000 Palestinians have been killed , hundreds of thousands more are displaced and a humanitarian crisis in Gaza is worsening.

The conflict has fueled mass protests around the world that have spread to American college campuses . U.S. support for Israel, particularly arms transfers, has come under particular criticism, something the administration is keenly aware poses potential problems for U.S. President Joe Biden in an election year.

Blinken’s trip comes as there are renewed concerns about the conflict spreading in the Middle East and with once-promising prospects for Israeli-Saudi rapprochement effectively on hold as Israel refuses to consider one of the Saudis’ main conditions for normalized relations: the creation of a Palestinian state .

Meanwhile, the Biden administration has been warning Israel against a major military operation in the southern Gaza city of Rafah, where more than a million Palestinians have fled to escape fighting farther north. Israel has not yet launched such an offensive, but Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly said that one will take place, asserting that it is the only way to wipe out Hamas .

Both topics were discussed during a Biden-Netanyahu phone call on Sunday, according to the White House and U.S. officials.

During his trip, Blinken said he would also underscore the absolute importance of not allowing the Israel-Hamas conflict to engulf the region .

The danger of conflagration was underscored this month when a suspected Israeli attack on an Iranian consular building in Syria prompted an unprecedented direct missile and drone response by Iran against Israel . An apparent retaliatory Israeli strike on Iran followed.

Although the tit-for-tat cycle appears to have ended for now, deep concerns remain that Iran or its proxies in Iraq, Lebanon, Syria or Yemen could act in such a way as to provoke a greater response from Israel or that Israel might take action that Iran feels it must retaliate for.
