#In all of the cases in which traveling before davening is permissible, it is still better to say the birkos hashachar before one embarks on his or her travels.<ref>Rama 89:3 quotes an opinion to the effect that traveling is always permitted after making brachos, although Aruch Hashulchan 89:21 points out that there is in fact no such legitimate opinion. Nonetheless, Mishnah Berurah 89:17 and 89:37 writes that making the brachos beforehand is preferable.</ref>

#The prohibition of traveling before Shacharis applies beginning from [[Olot HaShachar|Alos Hashachar]].<Ref>Shulchan Aruch 89:3, Aruch Hashulchan 89:22</ref> although some say that it begins from half an hour beforehand.<ref>Ishei Yisrael 13:23 footnote 61; cf. Biur Halacha 70:5 s.v. Hayah and Mishnah Berurah 89:17, 89:37 regarding working during the half hour before Alos Hashacher </ref>

#Most poskim assume that this prohibition also applies to traveling before one davens Mincha or Maariv,<ref>Rabbeinu Manoach quoted by Kesef Mishnah on Rambam Hilchos Tefillah 6:4, Mishnah Berurah 89:19-20. However, Halichos Shlomo 2:11 footnote 50 points out that the formulation of the Shulchan Aruch and especially Shulchan Aruch Harav indicate that the prohibition applies solely to Shacharis. See also Siach Halachah 19:17</ref> although the custom is to be more lenient regarding Minchah and Maariv for someone who would anyway be waiting for the usually scheduled minyan or for Minchah Ketanah.<ref>Halichos Shelomo 2:11:16</ref>
