There is early voting and mail in ballots. There is always a way.

Early voting can sometimes not be early enough. Some people can have their trip planned several weeks ahead and leave and not have the chance to even vote early. And how are you going to receive the mail-in ballot if you're moving from place to place in a foreign country? I have friends going to France who have to travel through several areas to meet all their relatives during the holidays. They can't stay in one place and wait for the ballot to arrive god knows when. And with the postal service strike, it's even more unreliable.
