One of the most prevalent modes of transportation, especially for international
travel, is through an airplane flight. Undoubtedly, flying can bring you to your
desired destination faster than other ways. With the purpose of having a hassle
and stress-free flight, prior preparation is vital. Here are some of the top travelling
tips for flying that will be of immense help in ensuring to experience a seamless
trip.
Compare Flight Fares among Airlines before Your Flight
In order to have a prior knowledge about your flight costs, it is highly advisable
to canvass flight fares among airlines to ensure that you will get the cheapest
fare available in your preferred day, time, and destination. You should know
beforehand that international flights are normally more expensive than domestic
flights even though they are bound to same destination.
Check On-line Where Your Seat is Located
Major airlines nowadays have online systems for their ticketing and seat
reservation and checking. Knowing the location where you will seat prior to
your flight will give you an idea about your situation while on board. There are
advantages and disadvantages of such seats. For instance, if you are located on
aisle seats, you will have the privilege to move more freely. Window seats on the
one hand, can give you a better view on clouds, sceneries, etc. While the middle
seats are quite deprived with the goodness of both seats.
Confirm the Scope of Your Ticket Reservation
It is also advantageous if you know beforehand the scope of your ticket
reservation- if it includes a free meal or not, free hot towels, and so on. Though,
you can bring your own snack to avoid getting hungry in cases that your ticket
doesn't include a free meal. Likewise, bringing an entertainment such as music
players is also advisable to kill boredom while on flight. Bringing laptops is also
permitted so you can continue your work, watch your favorite movies, or play
games.
Make Yourself Comfortable
In order to avert discomfort during the flight, wear comfortable clothes and shoes
as much as possible. If you have a neck pillow, try to bring one on board to help
your neck and back to relax. Aside from it, bring only the stuff that you really
need while on the trip to avoid carrying too heavy luggage. If your body wants to,
try to catch some sleep while travelling.
Avoiding Jet Lag and DVT
It is highly suggested that you get enough sleep before and during your flight.
Once you arrive at your destination, try your very best to live with the time zone
in order to avert having a jet lag. Also, while on flight, try to stretch your joints and
muscles every two hours and drink lots of fluids to avoid Deep Vein Thrombosis
(DVT), or blood clotting in veins, from happening.
Be Patient, Delays are Inevitable
Lastly, every flight experiences delays, so be patient and try not to become upset
and frustrated before, during, and after the flight. It will cause you nothing but
headaches.
