My Airfare Secrets                                                               Bookmark I have compiled what I consider important tips to make one's air travels a lot more inviting, relaxing, and enjoyable. If you want a smooth comfortable trip through the skies to your destination, follow the listed tips below: 1. Be the first one: If possible, try to be one of the first passengers to check early into your scheduled flight; why?  As an early passenger, you will  have far better choices of where to sit. 2. Selecting a seat: The best seats in all airlines are the seats next to a window. Also, keep in mind that the front rows of the airplane have a lot less turbulence in comparison to the back rows. 3. Carry on luggage: When preparing what you must take with you at all times, make your carry on luggage as small as possible; include a set of underwear, a few books, a pen, and a toothbrush. 4. Toilet:    If you must use the toilet and want to avoid the crowd, the best times to go to the toilet is moments after departing, and, between meals. 5. Drinking: It's a very good idea to drink a lot of water during your flight. Why? You will use the toilet more frequently and keep you from dehydration. 6. Alcohol: It is not recommended to drink alcohol throughout your air travel. The reason for this is that the airplane air is dry and thin; if you add any amount of alcohol to that you increase the chances of suffering dehydration and even in some cases, blood poisoning. 7. Travel pillows: A really nice travel pillow will certainly make your flight more comfortable and enjoyable. Bear in mind that the better travel pillows are the larger and thicker ones. 8. Sleeping pills: If you want to take sleeping pills while flying, only take a low dosage. Why? Sleeping pills have a more potent effect when flying 20,000 feet in the air. 9. Flight crew: If you want a pleasant flight experience, it only makes perfect sense to be kind to the airline crew. If you need something, be polite when asking for their assistance. You do not want to give demands, or you will spoil your entire flight experience. 10. After landing: For your safety, do not stand up until the "fasten seatbelt" sign has been turned off.  You do not want to find yourself in the awkward position of being stuck standing up along with other passengers in a crammed way for 30 minutes.   My Airfare Secrets                                                               Bookmark
