Often forgotten

  • Checked baggage · About 12 hours of travel each way, airport time included

    Many long-haul fares include one bag; low-cost carriers price each bag separately. Check the fare rules.

  • Airport transfer · Arriving by air

    The local transport line budgets getting around, not a private transfer. Check whether your stay includes one.

  • Travel insurance · An international trip

    Medical cover abroad and trip cancellation. Priced by the insurer for your party and dates.

  • SIM or eSIM · An international trip

    Roaming or a local data plan for the days you are away.

  • Tips and service charges · Any trip

    Customs differ by country; restaurants and drivers may expect them.

  • Souvenirs and gifts · Any trip

    Outside the activities line, which budgets what you do, not what you bring home.

About London

The UK capital spreads over a wide area, with the Underground, buses and rail doing most of the work and contactless fares capped daily. The large national museums, among them the British Museum, the National Gallery and the Tate galleries, are free to enter, which changes the shape of a budget and leaves accommodation as the largest line. Mild and changeable year round, darkest and wettest in winter.
