SNOWBIRD CHECKLIST A free online checklist to avoid potential disasters

Posted on 10/19/2016

If you have snowbird clients, now is the time that they are busy preparing for their migration to a warm weather destination for the winter. However, failing to be properly prepared can result in disasters at home, at the border and at their destination.

The good news is that things like burst pipes at home, being turned away at the border, missing bill payments, inadequate travel medical insurance and a pet not being admitted can all be avoided if snowbirds prepare ahead of time. But staying on top of everything that needs to be done can be a challenge.
Introducing the Snowbird Checklist
SnowbirdAdvisor.ca, has created an online checklist for snowbirds, detailing everything they need to do before departing for the winter. Travel agents with snowbird clients should encourage them to sign up for this free online newsletter created just for snowbirds.
From preparing their home in Canada to having the right travel documents to setting up cross border banking and more, SnowbirdAdvisor.ca has it covered.
“There’s a lot to think about when you’re leaving for four to six months each winter,” says Stephen Fine, president of SnowbirdAdvisor.ca.
“We provide snowbirds with a complete checklist detailing everything you need to think about including travel insurance, preparing your home and vehicle and updating all of your documents.”
The One-Stop Resource for Canadian Snowbirds
With the launch of SnowbirdAdvisor.ca this past May, snowbirds now have a one-stop online resource to find all the information they need in one convenient place, eliminating the need to spend countless hours searching for answers to their many questions.
The website’s team of snowbird experts covers topics such as travel tips, legal issues, destinations, insurance, finances, taxes, accommodations, real estate and everything in between.
“With the Boomer generation starting to retire, there will be a huge wave of new snowbirds looking for information over the next decade. Our site is designed to provide both new and experienced snowbirds them with all the information they need to enjoy the snowbird lifestyle to its fullest,” says Fine.
