Keep receipts; pay in cash (see currency conversion post here)
Always so good to be home, safe.
Dan and Jon at Homecoming
But no final cheering for a disaster-free trip until you have all the credit card statements. Keep all receipts. In a baggie.
Horror story: We were charged double, for a hotel nearest the airport the night before the flight out of Zagreb. Didn't know until we saw the credit card statement 2 months later. Credit card company straightened it out, but having the receipt was vital.
Another trip: We also were hypercharged for all sorts of fees, again when we were off to another airport, and when we had least time to object. It was sign or miss the flight.
Moral: Pay up daily if you are at a hotel more than one night. See all fees daily, so you can leave, thank you.
