Do not travel with ONLY a credit card and/or debit card. Why? Cards can become demagnetized or lost or maybe even a crafty squirrel might grab it out of your backpack and scamper over the rim of the Grand Canyon. The bottom line is that you should have some cash or traveler’s checks to fall back on in case of an unfortunate inconvenience involving your plastic.
