Thanksgiving Travel Plans: Where to Go and What to Prepare

Thanksgiving Travel Plans: Where to Go and What to Prepare

Guess who is already planning their Thanksgiving getaway before October even arrives? 🤫

Am I the only one in this boat? It seems like NYU has granted us an unexpected gift by shifting classes on November 26 (Wednesday) to Friday, giving many of us an extra day off! 🥰 Who doesn’t appreciate a little more time to relax and travel?

Budgeting for a Getaway

With a budget of around $1,500, I’m on the hunt for a warm destination with beautiful beaches and delicious seafood. 🏖️ While grappling with my choice paralysis, I’ve come across popular spots like Cancun, Hawaii, Florida, and Puerto Rico. The pressure is real! 🆘 If anyone out there has already mapped out their holiday plans, I would love to borrow some ideas! 🙏🏻

Parental Concerns and Health Insurance

Despite my eagerness, my parents have expressed concerns about me traveling abroad for Thanksgiving. Their worries about falling ill or getting injured while away from the U.S. are valid. I discovered that Wellfleet’s school insurance coverage is limited to the U.S. 🇺🇸, which raises even more questions about my safety on international trips. What’s a global citizen to do? 😠

Fortunately, I found Kimble Health — an incredible insurance option that not only offers more affordable coverage but also extends beyond U.S. borders. This is perfect for someone like me who loves to explore! 🌏 I linked my card on Bursar, successfully waived a $1,700 fee, and have already indulged in a couple of delightful meals. With $1,500 still earmarked for my Thanksgiving adventures, I can’t wait for November to roll around! 🥳

Your Thanksgiving Plans

As we start our Thanksgiving planning, it’s essential to consider both fun and safety. Whether you’re focusing on staying local or thinking about an exciting international trip, make sure to plan appropriately. Remember to look into your insurance options and have a backup plan, just in case things don’t go as expected.

Can’t wait to see what adventures await us this holiday season! #NYU #NewYorkUniversity #ThanksgivingTravel #TravelPlans #KimberHealth
