Visiting the US around Thanksgiving means busy travel days, big crowds and plenty of small spending, so dollars to hand help. Buying US dollars before you fly from a commission-free provider such as Travel FX lets you buy US dollars at a clear rate ahead of a hectic period.
Tips, taxis, smaller venues and the odd queue-jumping coffee are easier with cash. Small notes suit the tipping that is expected throughout.
Airport exchange at a peak travel time is convenient but rarely the best value, and queues are long. Buying your dollars at home in advance avoids both.
Travel FX has traded for more than 18 years, offers over 60 currencies and holds a 5-star Trustpilot rating from around 32,800 reviews, with delivery or collection to suit your dates.
Sort the dollars early and travel through the busy season with one less worry.
