What are some of your pre-trip anxieties and how do you relieve them?

I always experience a lot of anxiety before leaving on a trip – particularly if it is on a plane and alone. I feel like I have to have everything squared away at home before going. I am also nervous about getting to the airport. Two tactics have helped me some – packing early so I know what I am taking will fit in the case I want to use and getting a driver to take me to the airport. Curious to hear about anyone else’s strategies.
