How to protect money when traveling abroad with a strong dollar
Travelers can still lose money overseas despite a strong dollar due to volatile exchange rates and bank fees. Use credit cards with interbank rates and 1 percent fees, bring two major cards, and reserve cash for incidentals. ATM surcharges, transaction fees, and high interest on cash advances erase gains, so plan ahead and consider traveler's checks for safety.
