Planning your trip from a scratch: tips from IDBank

Have you already decided where you want to spend your vacation? While being on a trip is always associated with pleasant expectations, planning it can sometime turn into a real disaster. To help you avoid possible problems and fully enjoy your vacation, IDBank has created this simple travel guide filled with many useful tips.

Choose the destination

Decide what kind of vacation you want: a relaxing seaside holiday or an active, adventurous trip. You decision should correspond to your budget and expectations.

Set a budget

Divide your expenses between tickets, accommodation, food, transportation, shopping and leisure activities. Always try to plan the budget with an additional 10-15% for unforeseen expenses.

Find and book the ticket at the right time

Ticket prices change very often, so it is important to monitor price changes for a few days by checking different websites. With a little more search, you can not only find more affordable tickets, but also learn about special offers and campaign available at that time.

For example, IDBank has a special offer for its premium cardholders. till June 30, 2026, within the framework of “All Airlines” campaign, Visa Platinum, Travel, Visa Signature, Visa Infinite and Visa Infinite Special Edition cardholders can receive up to 25% idcoin when getting tickets at any avia company. Each cardholder can receive maximum total of up to 25,000 idcoins for payments made in a given calendar month (after tax), regardless of the number of cards they have.

You can find all the details of the campaign here.

Choose an accommodation

Check rating of hotel or accommodation you want to book, and also read the latest reviews, as they often provide a more realistic picture of the experience you can expect.

Do not forget to check your documents

To avoid unforeseen situations, such as not having internet access, keep copies of your important documents either in printed form or saved as screenshots on your smartphone.

Pack your suitcase properly

Don't take unnecessary things and to make your clothes take up less space and stay wrinkle-free, try packing them by rolling them up.

Plan the technical side

Install offline maps, and make sure to keep money both on your card and in cash to minimize risks.

Develop a plan for getting around the area

The best way to get to know the city is to go beyond the tourist areas. This way you can discover the real culture and enjoy authentic local food.

Do not rush to use taxi services

Try using local public transportation, as it is often 2-3 times more affordable.

That’s it: your perfect vacation is ready. All you have to do it to take your IDBank card, suitcases and set off on your long-awaited trip.
