Essential items to grab before you leave the departure lounge.

It’s ! ✈️ Following up on our lounge hack from earlier this month, here are the 3 quick things you should do right before boarding your flight:
1️⃣ Refill your insulated water bottle: High-end lounges have premium water filters. Fill up so you don’t have to wait for the tiny cups on the plane.
2️⃣ Grab a magazine or newspaper: Most lounges offer high-end reading material for free. Grab one to keep you busy during takeoff.
3️⃣ Download your playlists/shows: Use the lounge's high-speed Wi-Fi to download your offline entertainment. Plane Wi-Fi can be patchy! Your holiday comfort starts before you fly. 🌴

Wishing all our client's Happy Holidays and safe travels during these school holidays.

The "Local Sim Card" vs. Roaming

Staying connected without the massive bill. 📱📡

It’s (with a day late ;)!

🥥 Want to share your gorgeous holiday photos without coming home to a shocking phone bill?
Skip the expensive international roaming rates!
• Get an eSIM: Before you fly, download an app like Airalo to buy a cheap digital data card for your destination.
• Buy Local: The moment you land at the airport in Mauritius or Zanzibar, grab a local physical SIM card or an eSim (like Emtel or Zantel). It takes 5 minutes and gives you massive data for a fraction of the cost! 📲✨

Don't let a delayed room stall your holiday. 👙🏨

It’s ! 🌍
Picture this: You land in paradise at 10 AM, but your resort room is only ready at 2 PM. What do you do?

The SimplyTravel Strategy: Pack your swimwear, sunscreen, and flip-flops right at the top of your carry-on bag (or in your new dry bag!). Keep in mind, most resorts offer beach towels.

When you arrive, let the hotel hold your heavy luggage, head straight to the resort changing rooms, slip into your beach gear, and enjoy your first cocktail by the pool. Your holiday starts the minute you step onto the property! 🍹🏊‍♀️

Luxury comfort without the first-class ticket

It’s ! 🥥 As the winter cold settles in, the last thing you want is to sit on a cold metal bench at the airport waiting for your flight.
Did you know you don’t need a business class ticket to access the luxury airport lounges?
• Check your bank cards: Many South African credit cards (Discovery, FNB, Standard Bank, etc.) give you complimentary lounge passes every year.
• Pre-book access: If your card doesn't cover it, you can often buy a day pass for a small fee. With free food, warm coffee, and quiet spaces, it is the best way to start your holiday in style! ☕️🥐

How to beat jet lag before you even land. ✈️💧

It’s ! 🌍 Heading on an island escape soon? Here is a secret to beating jet lag that has nothing to do with sleep: The 250ml Rule.

The air inside an airplane cabin is notoriously dry, which dehydrates your body rapidly, and dehydration is the #1 cause of that sluggish, 'jet lag' feeling.

The Hack: Drink 250ml of water for every single hour you are in the air.
Bonus Tip: Avoid the caffeine and alcohol on the flight out. Save the cocktails for the beach when your body is fully hydrated and ready to celebrate! 🍹🌴

Sunscreen & Sea Life. 🐢🌊

It’s ! 🥥 As travellers, we are guests of the ocean. Did you know that common chemicals in sunscreen can actually harm the coral reefs we love to snorkel in? Next time you shop, look for 'Reef Safe' sunscreen. It’s a small switch that makes a massive difference to the turtles and fish we love to see! 🐠✨

Bonus Tip: If you can't find reef-safe cream, wearing a 'rash vest' or UV-shirt means you use less cream overall!"

🇲🇺 More than just a beach: A feast for your senses!
Caption: It’s ! 🌍 We all know Mauritius has stunning turquoise lagoons, but my tip today is for your tastebuds: You MUST leave your resort and try the local food!

Mauritian cuisine is an incredible, delicious melting pot of Indian, Chinese, African, and French influences.
While the buffet is amazing, nothing beats: 1️⃣ Street Food: Try a hot Dholl Puri (flatbread with curry) or Gateaux Piments (chilli cakes) from a vendor in Port Louis. 2️⃣ The Markets: Visit the bustling Central Market (Bazaar) for the smell of fresh spices and exotic fruits. 3️⃣ Local Vanilla: The island is famous for its smooth vanilla. Try the vanilla tea or a rich vanilla dessert at a local café. 🌿☕️
SimplyTravel Tip: Don’t be afraid! Mauritian food is full of flavour, not always heat. Ask for a sample—it might be the highlight of your trip! 🌶️🍍
