Tip #1 On business travel, always use your ATM card rather than your mileage-earning credit card for any cash advance in local markets. Credit cards have added additional fees (cash advance) that make it very expensive to have access to money when you travel. It's not the ATM fee that you have to consider, it's the cash advance fee.
