Business travelers have different needs than people traveling for leisure. Some spend a large amount of time in an airplane seat and away from home, therefore they need tools to help make their travel experience flow as smoothly as possible from beginning to end.

Global PhoneFor travelers conducting business internationally, a global phone is an invaluable tool. The best kind to purchase is a quad-band phone to ensure that there will be no problems with compatibility overseas. GSM is preferred to CDMA because CDMA’s coverage is not as extensive as GSM. Travelers that periodically travel abroad, they can rent a phone at their destination for a small fee.

Some good global phones are as follows:

Those travelers can either purchase separate travel adapters for each country or buy one adapter which performs the same functions. The 150 Country Auto Detecting Travel Adapter and Converter (its real name) does exactly that. Other than converting voltage for 150 countries, it also has two USB adapters built in, so busy travelers can charge their other USB-enabled devices.

Not to mention problems with phonics and pronunciation. That is where an electronic dictionary becomes necessary. The good translators are capable of performing more tasks than translating and will become indispensable to their owners when they are out of the country.

That problem is compounded when bottled water is not readily available or trustworthy. Travelers that own the SteriPEN no longer have to worry about water quality when they are abroad. All the traveler needs to do is stick the pen in water for 48-90 seconds (depending upon the amount of water) to sterilize their drinking water. No chemicals are involved in the sterilization, just ultraviolet light. SteriPEN makes multiple types of sterilizers, but the traveler and the traveler mini are the best types for travelers.
