Out of every story in the world, the best ones are found in between the pages of your passport. But not all trips are equal; some journeys are more memorable and fulfilling than the others.
While backpacking has its distinct benefits and charm, a journey where you can comfortably sit back and revel in the splendor of a destination is truly a priceless experience. Here’s how you can make each trip fulfilling:
Find your destination
You won’t always know right off the bat where you want to go, so revisit the list of places you’ve always wanted to see and the things you’d like to do there. Are you feeling energized to explore a completely new destination or would you rather have a laid-back repeat getaway? Know your travel priorities and choose a place that excites you.
Fly on business class
Travel is a 360-degree experience, so how you fly plays a big part in making your journey exceptional. From priority check-in, seats that lie flat, designated places for your carry on and shoes, a multi-course menu, an amenity kit, great inflight entertainment, to a space all your own, flying on business class elevates your travel experience even before you get to your destination. Book an airline that flies directly to your destination, and you’ll be able to fully maximize the perks. For instance, Philippine Airlines has direct flights to destinations all over the world and was recently rated by Skytrax as a 4-Star Airline for its consistent quality and excellent service.
Choose when it’s best for you to travel
Will the weather be conducive for the activities you want to try out? Will it be the height of tourist season? Make the most of your trip by scheduling it at a time that works best for your itinerary and preferences (do you like when there’s more people or not?). MasterCard has culled inspirational, culinary, cultural, and enriching experiences in many destinations around the world on its website www.priceless.com to help its cardholders find out what’s in store for them during the time they choose to travel.
Stay somewhere that brings out the best in your destination
The accommodations you choose also play a big role in enhancing your travel experience. Whether you’re staying at a five-star resort or a charming, upscale boutique hotel, book a room that offers lovely sights just outside your window and the luxury of plush sheets, pillows, and bed.
Invest in experiences
Traveling is about fueling your different passions, whether it’s discovering new flavors at a Michelin-starred restaurant, finding a memorable souvenir, getting the best seats to sold-out shows in the West End or Broadway, or going off the beaten path for a one-of-a-kind adventure. MasterCard aims to be everyone’s best travel companion by offering access to exclusive experiences and rewards abroad.
MasterCard enriches your trips with the Priceless Experiences with MasterCard promotion. Get the chance to fly business class on PAL to London or New York and get VIP seating to the critically acclaimed production Hamilton. You’ll also enjoy limousine airport transfers, luxury hotel accommodations, a welcome reception, a private city tour, and so much more with every $100 single receipt spend using your Philippine-issued MasterCard when traveling or shopping (including online merchants) overseas from April until June 30.
