A lot of people neglect the fact that you’ll need to change currency for your trip. This is a lot easier to do before you board your plane. The exchange services at your home airport are also usually your best bet for a fair rate. You never know where you’ll be able to convert to the local currency when you get to your destination, and doing your research there is more work than it’s worth.
