This article describes the most comfortable way to travel by plane. From how to pack on landing.
Steps
Step 1. Try to print your boarding pass from home
Step 2. If you can, put all your clothes and other items in one carry-on bag
Step 3. Always look for bags that are easy to carry (eg
wheels, shoulder straps to carry them on the shoulder, etc.). It will be more convenient to carry luggage inside the airport.
Step 4. Bring the smallest suitcase possible (if you plan to buy souvenirs, make sure you have enough space in your luggage)
Step 5. Roll up all the clothes that don't get worn out (this way they take up less space)
Step 6. Looking out the window is really fun, especially for children
Take into account the possibility of suffering from air sickness, take some tablets with you against this malaise, you never know!
Step 7. Think locally about your trip and make sure you have everything taken
Step 8. Do not put film cameras in checked baggage (film could be damaged)
Step 9. Bring something to pass the time
Headphones are ideal because sometimes traveling companions can be boring.
Step 10. Dress comfortably and heavily
The air conditioning of the plane is sometimes very strong so it is better that you have something with a high neck.
Step 11. If the weather permits, wear sandals or open shoes (wear shoes that are easy to take off if it's cold)
It will be useful as they may have you take your shoes off during the security check.
Step 12. Leave home on time
Try to be at the airport at least an hour and a half before departure time to be able to go through security checks calmly and not miss the plane. Sometimes the checks last even more than an hour.
Step 13. Make sure the loose change is in the wallet or purse (you will avoid having to take out all the coins at the security check)
Step 14. Put only the essentials in the bag
Step 15. Do not wear the belt or other metal things
Step 16. If you suffer from air sickness or need to sleep, take the necessary medicines
Step 17. Keep valuables in carry-on baggage (you will prevent them from being lost or stolen if left in checked baggage
)
Step 18. Chewing gum could help you if your ears get closed on take off or landing
Step 19. Keep your medicines in your hand luggage
If you leave them in your checked baggage and it gets lost, you may not have them if you need them.
Step 20. On arrival, take your luggage and get ready to get off as soon as possible, otherwise you'll have to wait
Suggestions
- Bring an MP3 or iPod, candy and chewing gum, books (one or two if you read quickly)
- Bring your regular traveler card with you and show it to credit points.
Warnings
- If your baggage weighs more than 20kg, they may charge you a fee. If you have any doubts or plan to buy a lot of souvenirs, bring two suitcases. Many airlines allow you to carry two suitcases each at no extra charge. Check the rules of the company you will be traveling with.
- Respect the new rules for the transport of liquids and gels. (It might be enough to buy new toothpaste, or new easy-to-find hair products)
- Many low-cost airlines charge a fee on the first bag which increases significantly on the second bag.
