I concur with Jim, although you might not have enough time to get that set up. Do at least notify your card company so that they'll know not to kick in their automatic anti-fraud alerts and freeze your card unexpectedly. Also, you might be able to ask them to put a daily limit on your card usage just to limit the damage in case someone does get their hands on your info.

Also, before you leave, write down all the phone numbers and email addresses of your financial institutions in case you do need to contact them. It seems like a small thing, but sometimes finding that information without the original cards or an internet connection can be time-consuming and frustrating.
