Now that hundreds of tourists are returning to fly and travel abroad,

you should know that you have the option to Fly with a SIM card that will be

used immediately upon landing abroad and at a discounted and affordable price + my discount

for you (just typing the Hilal code) which will buy you a 10% discount.

Apart from the discount, I have gathered here general information about SIM cards and specific

information about the card on which I recommend:

What are the options available today in the field of SIM cards:

The Israeli tourist has several options for purchasing a SIM for a trip to Europe, the USA and Canada:

Purchase of an overseas package from the local cellular provider in Israel:

Benefits:

No need to change SIM

· Stay with the original phone number

Disadvantages:

· This is usually a data package only

· The price of the package is higher compared to the other options

· The cost of a high call to Israel and receiving calls from Israel for an additional fee

It is not possible to make a local call (important and useful on the trip, especially when you want to

call the hotel / book a place in a restaurant and more)

2. Purchase a local SIM when arriving at the destination:

Benefits:

In Europe it will usually be cheaper (in the US it is not cheaper), usually the SIM includes

limited data and does not always include local calls.

Disadvantages:

· The SIM does not include calls to Israel

Waste of valuable travel time on finding a store and time to buy a SIM

· A SIM purchased in the US will not necessarily work in Canada, which will again require a financial

outlay and a waste of time searching and purchasing a local SIM …

3. Purchase a local SIM before the flight in Israel:

There are quite a few companies in the country that offer the purchase of a local SIM for travelers abroad –

globusim.com (from 011 Global) provides the best and most worthwhile response to the customer

You can purchase a variety of packages of different sims in the country, before the flight and it is

convenient and worthwhile (see benefits mentioned above)

Advantages of an Israeli SIM card:

– You get off the plane and there is reception, no need to look for a local store / stand.
– English and Hebrew support center (if there are problems connecting, there is someone
to talk to).
– Activated immediately (some of the drugs purchased in the US need time to activate).
– No matter what day you land (a large part of the stores abroad are closed on Sundays).

The benefits of the Globusim card:

– Cheaper price than all Israeli companies
– No surprises – the price includes everything – SIM + calls + data
– Unlimited calls to Israel – do not need an Internet connection to talk to the house
(does not bite into the Internet package)
– The SIM includes local calls
· The SIM is included in the price (no need to return it)
· Option to transfer calls from the Israeli number (in some packages included in the price –
Or you can add about $ 10-12 for the entire period).
Multi SIM card – one card that can be used on any type of smartphone or tablet.
The card consists of three parts: plain, micro and nano.

Examples of packages:

European SIM – on a flight to European countries

American SIM – Includes a SIM that works in both Mexico and Canada.

This week there was an interesting article on the Bar Code program on

Channel 10, they did a test – when is the cheapest month to book a hotel

and where …

Of course, the month in which a hotel room can be obtained at a very lucrative

price (relative to the peak of the season) – may not be the most desired month

for this destination, but that does not mean that it is not worth visiting this

destination …

In any case, when to visit and where – this is your decision, and it must consist

of different and personal considerations.

If your consideration is a cost consideration, you should know which month

will pay the most expensive accommodation and which month prices are

significantly cheaper!

Following is the list I made, following the Channel 10 barcode program:

in Japan –

The month when the most expensive hotel prices are April.

The most lucrative month (and also about to get there in terms of flowering

and weather) is June, this month you will pay about 41% less in hotel prices.

Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) –

The month when the most expensive hotel prices are January.

The most lucrative month is December, which you will pay about 24% less in

hotel prices this month.

Miami Beach –

The month when the most expensive hotel prices are January.

The most lucrative month is September, which will pay about 42% less

for hotel prices this month.

St. Petersburg –

The month when the most expensive hotel prices are June.

The most lucrative month is April, this month you will pay about 49% less

in hotel prices.

Goa –

The month when the most expensive hotel prices are January.

The most lucrative month is September, which you will pay about 26% less

in hotel prices.

In Thailand

The month when the most expensive hotel prices are January.

The most lucrative month is July, which you will pay about 46% less

in hotel prices.

London

The month when the most expensive hotel prices are July.

Surprisingly, the most lucrative month is August, which will pay about 16%

less for hotel prices this month.

(As in London, hotel prices in August also pay more in August).

In Lisbon –

The month when the most expensive hotel prices are October.

The most lucrative month is July, which month you will pay about 22%

less in hotel prices.

In Tenerife –

The month when the most expensive hotel prices are February.

The most lucrative month is September, this month you will pay about 18%

less in hotel prices.

Copenhagen –

The month when the most expensive hotel prices are June.

The most lucrative month is April, this month you will pay about 31%

less in hotel prices.

In Oslo –

less in hotel prices.

For several months now I have been planning our family trip to Austria,

Even after everything is planned and written, I’m still sharpening / upgrading

/ editing, and so on.

I always have more and more new insights, new places to consider –

maybe getting into the schedule?

I check the distances of the attractions from each other, write the

exact addresses for me and how long will it take us from destination

to destination,

Also note how much time you spend in each attraction,

To know if the schedule is not too crowded and if we have enough,

In short – lots of work!

And after all that comes the very important stage

In planning a trip with adolescents:

Stage expectations coordination!

I built a schedule, but is it suitable for my children?

I do not want to create a situation that we have reached a certain place,

Which is not at all suitable for children and does not interest them.

Imagine a situation where

after all the hassle and in most cases even after expensive tickets –

They are not capable at all of this attraction.

And that’s what I want to avoid.

It’s clear to me that it can always happen,

And even if I aimed for their taste no one assures me they are

Be completely satisfied and not disappointed with the attraction we came to,

But it is important for me to reduce such situations to the minimum possible

And plan a trip that is really tailored to them.

Especially when it comes to Austria, where there is almost everything!

Full of attractions of all kinds and for all ages,

Because there are many options it is difficult to choose

And it’s even harder to give up some of them.

Another important thing: Most attractions are quite expensive!

That’s why it’s important to choose them well.

So how did I coordinate expectations with my children this time?

After experiencing our spontaneous vacation in Barcelona

A mismatch between what I thought they would like (theme parks)

And what they really wanted (pool / sea / internet).

This time I made a presentation with the itinerary!

I made an appointment with them one evening in our living room

And I gave them the presentation! It says what we have planned for each

day of the trip.

I was surprised to find out that they were really interested in the flight itself and

asked:

What time is it flying? What time do they arrive? How long is the flight? and so’

Information that I didn’t think was essential to them at this time,

But apparently they were interested in knowing.

While presenting, I realized that:

My kids don’t want to visit caves and mines …

It doesn’t excite them, nor do special caves like the ice cave

Or a special mine like a salt mine ..

Inside, I was disappointed, but I decided to flow with them.

True, they can still be persuaded to try,

And they may even find it enjoyable, but when there is such a wide

range of options,

Why not choose what will delight them most?

Just replace the cave/mine with attraction,

Make them more interested. And that’s what I did.

Luckily I have more time to make changes.

I intend to print the presentation, and she will accompany us during the trip,

That way they knew every day what was expected of them today and what

was expected of them tomorrow.

How was practice? Of course, I’ll update after the trip

Until then, we will continue to count the days,

Get excited and plan dream trips

Money Challenge – Or Where’s the Money to Fly Abroad?https://www.hahulcalul.co.il/en/money-challenge-or-wheres-the-money-to-fly-abroad/ https://www.hahulcalul.co.il/en/money-challenge-or-wheres-the-money-to-fly-abroad/#respond Thu, 23 Apr 2020 10:27:32 +0000 https://www.hahulcalul.co.il/?p=7330Flying abroad is no longer just for the rich, Especially since we have the Low Coast flights!

Flying abroad is no longer just for the rich,

Especially since we have the Low Coast flights!

But the cost of flying is not the only component of a vacation abroad,

There are many other elements that together bring us to the total cost of 

the trip.

If it is a family, the cost can of course be twice (and even more) the cost 

of a couple’s vacation.

And anyway you look at it it’s quite a bit of expense.

So how do more and more people fly abroad anyway?

According to CBS data: In 2017, the number of Israelis who traveled 

abroad was 7.6 million, a 12% increase over 2016.

1.6 million of them went abroad twice or more!

How do they manage to do this and why?

Why? This is a relatively easy question to answer,

Except for the trivial answer that it’s a trip, a vacation, fun and enjoyment

to everything,

There are other issues why more and more people are choosing to 

travel abroad.

First of all, it is very expensive to go on vacation in Israel,

And many Israelis already know that in many cases it is more lucrative

Fly abroad for vacation than relax in a hotel in Israel.

In addition, vacationing abroad has a different, more exciting, more 

challenging scent,

The world is big, the options are many and varied and a trip abroad 

can be tailored to any need, composition, desire and mood.

So how do you fly for a perfect vacation without being impoverished?

Spending the vacation consists mainly of flight, accommodation,

food, transportation and attractions.

How to fly cheaply and how to reduce the costs of lodging I explained:

Here and here and here,

Besides, there are other things you can do to reduce our travel expenses,

Of course, not everything is for everyone.

From the options, choose what you compromise and what doesn’t,

for example:

* Choose a destination that is cheap for a living (flight is not cheap enough)

* Not to go abroad during the burning season (great holidays and holidays)

* Sleeping in an apartment rather than a hotel is usually cheaper

(for an discount on an Airbnb apartment booking please enter here)

Some people go far and sleep free in people who host it but it is an issue

in itself …

Some people go far and sleep free in the homes of people who host

them but that is an issue in itself …

* Do not sleep in the city center because there most often expensive,

but stay away from the center.

* Do not eat in restaurants, try to buy food at the supermarket and cook

alone (this is why you should be in an apartment with a kitchenette).

* Car rental can be waived and transported by public transport

* Many European cities have free tours, you can find out all the details

online and sign up (thanks to Ilana Bar for the tip).

What else can you do to reduce your financial expense and fly without having

to worry?

* Book your airline tickets as soon as possible (or at the very last minute).

One of the benefits of booking a flight several months in advance is

the payment of the trip.

Once you paid for the flight long before the trip, you have a few months

left to pay the other components of the trip, such as paying for a rental car

(after you have finished paying for the flight),

If you later paid for the hotel, all you have left on this trip is to pay for

the attractions and the food.

This is how you deploy payment for the trip during the previous months

of the trip

And do not pay all the expenses at once at the time of the trip

(or payments that continue even after you return from the trip).

Booking a flight ahead of time also allows you to get along well

With the itinerary and all its details, entry fees to each attraction and

how to lower those costs (Maybe using discount cards?

Groupon? Benefits from the accommodation? and more)

It is important to insure the flight if you have booked it well in advance.

* As it is recommended to book a flight a few months in advance, it

is advisable to book a car a few months in advance.

We order a car from Rantlecar

Because their rental conditions and their prices are the best.

And if you don’t book the flight so long in advance? What to do ?

If you do not book a flight several months in advance,

And would like to pay for the components of the trip near you on

your trip –

You can also ease your payment load by “savings plan”,

Aimed at saving money for a very specific destination, like a family trip!

So how do you do that?

Most of us feel that money is running out of our hands so we have no

money to spare and no savings plan at the bank for one reason or another.

Do you feel that way too? If you don’t want to make a savings plan at the

bank, you can still save money.

There is an independent and fun saving method, and it is suitable for everyone.

With this method you feel how you approach your trip more and more,

The excitement that holds you every time you save shekels for shekels

feels real like an integral part of the trip planning.

So what is this method (which I have taken on for a second year in a row)?

I turned to Zohar Binyamini Training and Economic Accompaniment for

Small Business and Families

Director of this “year’s Silver Challenge Group” on Facebook and I asked her

to explain us how to save money for your next vacation, here’s

Zohar’s words:

“Going on vacation is something that requires thought and planning.

And if we regularly go on vacation, say once a year,

It is also worthwhile to take a vacation financially.

Many vacationing families will simply iron out their credit card,

And pay for flights and hotels.

But credit card ironing is no different from taking a loan to go on

vacation (unless you pay a single fee).

Why is this a loan?

Because since you don’t have any money now, you divide the big payment

into payments,

And pay for the vacation over the next six months and sometimes even for

the coming year (depending on the price you paid).

What happens in practice?

You pay for the vacation many months after you’ve already returned

from it,

You may have already forgotten that you were on a trip, and may even

be planning your next vacation.

There is another way to go on vacation.

Instead of paying holiday payments forward,

I suggest that you make the payments before your vacation so you have

all the money when you have to pay.

How do you do that?

How Much Can Your Vacation Cost – Let’s Say 6,000 NIS.

This means that you have to save 500 NIS a year for a year to have the

full amount.

And now the bank is asking for a direct debit of NIS 500 and is applicable

in the CCP.

By the way, that’s exactly the idea of the “money challenge” –

We save amounts all year according to a known table,

So that in the summer we have a considerable amount of money to do

with him whatever we want.

This can be a vacation or any other purpose that is important to you.

That way, you will always pay with money you have,

And you won’t have to see the vacation you already forgot, in the face

of any credit card bill. “

I have saved this year, in this way, easy money for our family summer trip

to Austria.

I saved over NIS 6,000 in less than a year using this method.

Do you have any other savings tips? Write to me in comments

Thank You

Great freedom is already here

And for most of us, the family trip to Otto comes!

So, just before you set off

You should read the following tips,

To improve your next family trip

And make it much more successful

I have compiled important tips for you to have a trip with children

from my experience

And reading other parenting tips from the Facebook group “Traveling Abroad with Children,”

Let’s get started?

1. In Your Trip Plan – Customize the program for the kids and what they like,

Don’t plan more than 2 attractions a day.

Set aside other attractions as an option in case you have provided them

And you have time and power to do something else.

Also think about a “stimulating plan” for rainy days (even in summer in Europe, it is expected to rain).

Also, note that the vehicle is spacious and that travel from place to place

It doesn’t take more than an hour and a half in either direction.

Don’t forget to take your favorite music (both on disk and on-disk),

A mobile phone/tablet for gaming on long trips can also help a lot.

2. Share the children in advance with the trip plan, give them space to express their opinion and if necessary –

Change the itinerary according to their preferences, this is first and foremost their trip.

3. Once the trip plan is ready, adjust expectations with the children. This is a very important step.

If there are long journeys, let them know and tell them what is expected of them at each step of the trip.

On long trips do not forget to make stops to refresh both the driver and the children.

4. Although you made a travel plan – leave room for flexibility and change,

were attentive to the children And the development of your trip.

5. Add one free day to your plan with no plans or one short program,

On this day you will have a free day to rest, spend in the pool

Or insert something that is not in your schedule.

6. Important, especially with older children – allocate a certain amount per child for wastage,

On the trip itself, each of the children decides what to do with the money given to them.

If the kids save money in advance and bring it with them, it’s just a bonus.

You are the amount you have decided on in advance – let them.

It saves lots of unpleasant situations, loads of headaches for parents and educates the kids

Save, think and exercise judgment in their choices about what to spend the money.

This tip is especially important when traveling in the city (less significant when traveling on nature-free shopping sites).

7. Hungry children are nervous children. Prepare ahead of time when it comes to food.

It is recommended to take an apartment or hotel with a fully equipped kitchen.

If possible, you should bring frozen food from home,

That you have prepared in advance – it will help you in the first days of the trip.

An example of a food that should be brought to you in a soft cooler, especially if you are a kosher keeper:

Frozen prepared schnitzels, frozen ready-made patties, tortillas, hot dishes, tuna.

On the trip, itself were sliced bread, vegetables, chocolate spread, ketchup, snacks, mineral water

And don’t go without a food cooler every day on a trip.

On our last trip, I listened to gaseous social advice and stocked up on schnitzels and patties

Who had a full week and contributed greatly to our successful trip with seventy and satisfied children.

8. Take your car with wipes, toilet paper and changing clothes/towel

Especially if you are traveling to wet destinations or if needed

In changing clothes for some reason.

9. Wherever you go, have the children give one last look back

And make sure you haven’t forgotten anything!

10. Pre-register names on chargers, mobile battery, headphones

And anything you can quarrel about

Credit to Tip: Sheeran Topol Cohen from the group

“Traveling Abroad with Children”.

11. Make sure you have enough sleeping hours for children, who will not be too tired.

12. Equip the kids with a lost “lost child” card or a special bracelet with your details in case they get lost.

13. A Sivan Revivo tip (from the group “Traveling Abroad with Children”)

that can fit some of you:

“On a long (two-week) trip we exchange 2-3 accommodations,

The last two nights I have been taking two separate rooms in a hotel

And do boys room (dad + son), girls room (me and the girls) ….

After an intense trip where we are 24/7, a little harmless separation,

on the contrary … there’s a new kind of bonding.

We did this already on two different trips and was a successful fire 🙂

Fun to meet again at breakfast .. “

14. On the trip itself, you will flow, be calm and do not get excited about

the fights between the children,

Try to soak up a good atmosphere in every situation and start and finish

each day beautifully with a smile and fun.

Don’t be judgmental of each other.

Try to talk orally with the kids every day that ends, what we did,

what we saw, how it was, where we enjoyed it most.

They love it and you will learn a lot about your children’s preferences

for the next trip.

15. Last Kind Tip: When a family vacation ends immediately close

and book a net couple vacation!

You will appreciate it every moment!

Flight Cancellation Insurancehttps://www.hahulcalul.co.il/en/flight-cancellation-insurance/ https://www.hahulcalul.co.il/en/flight-cancellation-insurance/#respond Thu, 25 Jan 2018 07:30:54 +0000 https://www.hahulcalul.co.il/?p=7439What Is Flight Cancellation Insurance And Why Should You Do Such Insurance? What does he give and what does he include?

The post %% POSTLINK %% appeared first on %% BLOGLINK %%

At those moments we had to be on a plane on our way to Milan Italy for a 

family winter vacation.

The planning was: first skiing in the Dolmites, the Masquerade Festival in 

Venice and a little Milan to end the trip.

But I canceled this vacation. And just today I saw that the money came into 

account.

How ?

I secured the vacation with a flight cancellation insurance called “trip geranti” 

by Hafenix.

The insurance can be done within a week of purchasing the airline tickets and 

then the flight can be canceled for any reason and you will get most of the 

money back.

All the details about insurance here

So what’s my story? Why did I buy this flight and why did I cancel?

The fact that I love capturing cheap flights and traveling the world is well 

known,

This time I found a cheap flight, when EasyJet flight dates for the winter 

opened,

I found a flight for the dates of the Masquerade Festival in Venice, at a cost of 

NIS 1300 for 5 people !!

So-called: pennies!

And of course I did not resist and bought the tickets!

Since I booked the tickets a long time before the flight date, I preferred to 

insure them for a few more pennies (10% of the cost of the tickets), because it 

is impossible to know what will be until then.

And in the meantime, things changed, we flew to Paris in December and we 

were too busy to add another flight at such a close time.

And the main reason for cancellation is:

Although airline tickets were very, very cheap, it all turns out to be very 

expensive!

Accommodation, food, travel (in a rental car), skiing – all this for 5 people 

comes out expensive.

An expense that doesn’t suit me at this stage of life,

When I’m still planning a summer outing with the kids.

So with a heavy heart and very much difficulty and after a lot of deliberation – I 

decided to cancel the tickets.

I contacted Trip Grant, they explained to me which forms to send them,

I got all the forms, canceled the flight in front of EasyJet

(I didn’t find anywhere on their flight cancellation website, just make other 

changes)

And I faxed all the forms they requested.

Immediately, I received my confirmation that the forms had arrived, and within 

up to 30 days the money (80% of the cost of the flight) was already in my 

account.

Wonderful service !!

Another thing I discovered in the case of the current Isigjet order:

If you are planning to take paid suitcases with you, you should book them as 

soon as you book your airline tickets,

Because then the most lucrative price.

If you want to add suitcases later, the price is likely to go up!

So it was in this case anyway. I didn’t buy suitcases with the tickets, and the 

price for a suitcase in the direction of rose …

On the other hand, if you are not at all sure that you will go on a trip – 

purchasing a suitcase will be an unnecessary expense if the tickets are 

canceled at the end.

Because on the Low Coast flights there are no refunds! Therefore, this 

insurance exists and it is recommended to do so.

* I know it sounds like an advertisement, but it’s not. I wish I had something 

out of it.

It’s just a positive experience I’ve had with this insurance and they deserve the 

good word!

pay attention:

Apart from flight cancellation insurance, you should do regular travel insurance 

in case of health (which I hope will not happen)

You can also insure a phone / computer you take with you for a flight.
