Who doesn’t love travelling? Unless you’re extremely lazy or a person of damped personality, there’s no way that you won’t like to travel and explore. However, travelling involves transportation, and many-a-time, that involves airports that can kill your buzz. But there’s nothing to worry about anymore, because the hacks shown here are bound to help you out in such situations.
Check them out!
1. Skipping the security hassles.
Check if you apply for Global Entry or TSA Pre programs. That could help you skip all the unnecessary security hassles.
2. Red eye flights.
Flying the red-eye flights will help you save money, time and the rush of people!
3. Bringing your own alcohol.
You can bring your own alcohol on the plane if they’re 100 ml or less and fit in a 20 cm x 20 cm Ziploc bag.
4. Using psychology to your advantage.
As most of the people are right-handed, they tend to turn right on impulse. Use that to your advantage and pick the security lane that’s on the left to avoid line-ups!
5. Saving money.
Carry an empty water bottle in your carry-on and fill water from the fountain free of cost. After all, one can do anything to avoid spending money on the ridiculously priced stuff at the airports.
6. Seat Guru
Use sites like Seat Guru to find out which seats are good and which are not, basing on feedback of previous passengers.
7. Nothing wrong in asking.
Always ask for upgrades, lest you miss out something that was up for grab.
8. Avoiding turbulence.
If you want to avoid turbulence, it’s advisable to board a morning flight as factors that give rise to turbulence generally occur during the afternoon.
9. Save money on parking.
If you plan to park and ride, this can help you find cheaper parking than the airport.
10. When travelling with family.
Some airports have family lounges where the parents can grab a drink at peace while the children play around.
11. Take a photo.
When you park, it’s a good idea to click a photo of your parking spot, lest you forget it after all the travelling!
12. When you cross the weight limit.
In case you go over the weight limit, wear the extra clothes. It will be hot, but that’s better than paying up!
