Why spend your time standing in line at exchange bureaus, banks or airport kiosks when you can quickly and easily order foreign currency at Day Air before you leave the country?  You can purchase currency at any Credit Union Branch or online with My Travel Wallet, and it will be delivered as quickly as overnight.  Upon your return to the United States, Day Air will buy back your unused foreign currency.
