Top Five Tips for Summer Road Trips
Check out CAA Travel’s top tips to ensure perfect road trips this summer!
Planning to hit the road this summer? Whether you’re heading to the cottage or the big city, check out CAA Travel’s top tips to ensure that your trip goes off without a hitch.
- Think Safety First
Never leave home without a First Aid Kit. It doesn’t have to be large, in fact many drug-stores (and CAA Stores) carry kits that are small enough to fit in your glove compartment. Make sure yours contains at a minimum, disinfectant, gauze, and bandages in different sizes. - Get it in Paper
If you’re like most travellers, you’ve come to rely on your smartphone to keep you in-the-know, wherever you go. But if you plan to travel far, remember that many stretches of highway have spotty or no connectivity. Take a printed map or road atlas with you as a backup to your GPS or Google Maps, or click here to get a free CAA TripTik online with your CAA Membership card. - Book a Hotel
If you’re renting accommodations, consider a tried-and-true hotel brand you know and trust. Because there is nothing worse after a long day’s journey then rolling up to sub-par accommodations. Stay in comfort and style at a Best Western and save up to 15% on standard rates, just by showing your CAA card! - Get Road Worthy
Make sure your car is ready to hit the road. Have it serviced by a licensed technician, and if you need of replacements parts for your vehicle, visit your nearest NAPA Auto Parts. CAA Members always save 10% on the retail price. - Upgrade Your Membership
Ensure your CAA Membership will go the distance with you! If you plan on travelling far, consider an upgrade to your existing plan. Upgrade to a Plus or Premier plan today by calling 1-844-252-3648 today!
