Travel Tips

In addition to packing light and traveling prepared, there are many travel tips that will help airline adventurers reach their destinations safely and uneventfully.

Helpful Travel Tips for Fliers

Savvy travelers should keep the following tips and advice in mind when embarking on their next vacation or business trip:

  • Don't dress to impress. Comfort trumps fashion when you're facing a four-hour flight. Remember to wear comfortable footwear, just in case you have to run to catch a connecting flight or stand in line at the security checkpoint.
  • Select baggage carefully, and learn to pack light. If you can get by with one mid-sized carry-on bag for domestic travel, you'll simplify your travel experience. It's good advice to shoot for a bag that will fit under your airplane seat, since there's never enough overhead space to go around.
  • Rethink that large latte. While the airport coffee bars look inviting, the in-flight jitters might not be your cup of tea. You'll also avoid multiple visits to the cramped lavatory if you lay off the liquids.
  • Bring some cash to the airport. You'll need it for tips, and most airlines require it for snack or drink purchases and in-flight movie earphone rental. Remember to change out large bills. Chances are you won't want to surrender that 20-dollar bill when it's time to tip the shuttle driver or the skycap.
