Cursed Travel Habits to Break Before Your Senior Trip
There are plenty of travel horror stories out there, but the scariest ones? The ones that could’ve been totally avoided. Before you jet off on your GradCity senior trip, make sure you’re not haunted by these cursed travel habits. Break them now… before they come back to bite you.



1. The Curse of the Overpacker
It starts innocent, “I might need this extra outfit.” But soon your suitcase is bursting at the seams and you’re wrestling it through the airport like a monster from the deep.
Break the curse: Plan outfits ahead of time. You don’t need seven pairs of shoes. Trust us.
2. The Ghost of the Unchecked Email
Legend says some travelers never open their GradCity emails… and they miss important updates, payment reminders, or trip details that could’ve saved them from total chaos. Checking your email is an important part of planning your trip…
Break the curse: Check your inbox weekly. The info in there could save your trip.
3. The Procrastination Phantom
This spirit appears when you say, “I’ll fill out my forms later.” Then suddenly it’s the night before the deadline, and you’re racing the clock like you’re in a horror movie.
Break the curse: Do it now. Your future self will thank you.
4. The Vanishing Passport
Some say it disappears right when you need it most… like at the airport counter.
Break the curse: Find it now, make sure it’s valid for at least 6 months after your trip, and keep it in a safe place.
5. The WiFi Whisperer
This one haunts those who think they’ll “just message their group when they land.” Without WiFi, you’re lost in the travel void.
Break the curse: Download your GradCity itinerary, save your rep’s contact, and plan ahead. Getting an international SIM card is always a good idea!
