2 weeks today...

[joolz1910]

Sooooo close! Is there anything I might have forgotten to do? This is what I have done so far:

Packed!
Passports
Driving License
Estas
API
Told CC companies we will be away
Bought dollars
Printed ADR's
Photocopied passports
Arranged for someone to feed the cat

I still need to order extra medication from my GP. I feel like I am ready to invade and run a small country.

Wow! Very organised. We fly out two weeks yesterday and I haven't even considered packing yet. Are you available to rent?!

 

[orangetiggs]

Wow we go two weeks thursday and still need to sort loads out :-( car broke down last week so that was a bill i didnt need

All exciting though

 

[mrtoffee]

It's two weeks tomorrow for us and I have pretty much the same as you sorted. Can I just ask what API means it's the only thing on your list that through me

 

[orangetiggs]

Advanced passenger info

We fill ours in online with virgin atlantic

 

[mrtoffee]

Thank you, I must say I have never done the API thingy before with Virgin. Will check all my paperwork tonight and see if I need to do anything.

From va site, if you log into your booking uts got add api details or something along those lines next to your name

Thanks for the link orange tiggs' I did all that a while back over the phone through the flying club without realising it

 

[orangetiggs]

Yes i just do it now without realising it which is better than having to worry about it

Lol, I am annoyingly OCD about these things. I break out in a cold sweat when people tell me that they pack the night before they go.

Just got last month's CC bill and it's £500 more than I earn a month. A lot of outgoings this month

Sounds like you are all set

I spend so much time on minor details, I'm bound to forget something major!
Like the year I forgot to pack all of my underwear...

2 weeks 2 days for us, not thought about packing. I remember a few years back booking a holiday at lunchtime, flew at midnight, I was on the phone booking while Karen ran upstairs to start packing, it doesn't take long.

Does Karen agree with you that the packing 'doesn't take long'? My DH would probably say the same thing.

3 weeks today for us although we set off in 2 weeks and 5 days as we live in France.....Not even thought about packing yet, I only bought the cases last week although I have been popping a few bits in. I have all the paperwork sorted and ESTAS done. I still need to order $1000 more spending money to pick up at the airport and also to buy our park tickets. Other than that I think we are sorted. I did book dine with Shamu today and am going to ring the hotel to request a room that someone has recommended on Trip Advisor. We did book with TCD, does anyone know when they send you the pack with the tickets etc as they are being posted to my sisters and she then needs to post them here to France?


Very exciting though as it gets closer........

I'm def with you there. Think you're more organized then me but it does make me twitch a bit thinking about how/when I'll pack for next September!
