First-time traveler? These tips should make your air travel and flight easier and more convenient.
DO…
- Travel light. Put only real essential items on your handbag, including wallet, plane ticket, cell phone, and medicines. Put other relevant stuffs on your carry-on luggage.
- As much as possible, wear light slip-on shoes – both easy for security and comfortable for you on the plane.
- For long air flights, bring your own blanket and travel pillow.
- Carry disposable wipes for cleaning your hands, although you can always ask for wet towels from flight attendants.
- Buckle up during take off, landing, and every time the seat belt sign is lighted.
- Turn off all electronic gadgets including cell phones, digital cameras, and camcorders, laptops, and mp3 players during take off and landing to avoid interferences.
- Listen attentively and follow in-flight instructions.
- Carry with you candies, chewing gum, and light snacks so that you can chew on something when you get hungry during the flight.
DON’T…
- Make jokes about bombs, hijackers, and plane crashes. Security will take this seriously and they would have to question you about the truth to those.
- Carry liquid (including perfume, hair gel, toothpaste, lotion, mouthwash, and the likes) with you on your handbag or carry-on luggage as you would have to surrender them all to security.
- Invade other travelers’ privacy. Unless they want to talk to you during the flight, respect what they are doing.
- Talk, laugh, or sing in a really loud voice.
- Use more overhead space than what you need.
- Leave your belongings unattended. Keep a watchful eye on your children, too.
- Recline your seat too far, unless you are in first class that you have enough space.
- Stand up and walk around the plane while the seat belt sign is lighted. Buckle up for safety.
As long as you abide by the rules of air tarvel, your flight will surely be as easy, memoreable, and peaceful as possible!
Enjoy your trip!
