Do You Make These Air Travel
Mistakes?
by: Neil Stelling
You're sitting at home thinking about tomorrow's
plane journey.
Remember last time ? Remember how you felt when you arrived ?
Aggravated, stressed, hot, tired, needing a couple of days to recover ?
Did you make these mistakes ?
* Packed your luggage just before you left home.
Don't pack your bags a half hour before leaving.
You know those
vital papers, that book you wanted to read, or even your passport will
mysteriously disappear at the last minute. Always pack the night
before, and you'll find everything right there waiting !
* Arrived at the airport late.
There's no worse way to start your journey than
sitting in
traffic a couple of miles from the airport, watching the minutes tick
by. Leave early. Expect a lot of traffic and your journey will take
extra time. Then you'll arrive at the airport relaxed and near the
front of the check-in line. If you get your first choice of seat you'll
feel even better !
* Didn't prepare for the plane journey.
* Dehydrated - the air you breathe on a plane is
very dry. If
you want to avoid dehydration bring a bottle of water with you and sip
on it during the journey.
* Air Sick - if you suffer from motion sickness,
and many
people do, you can take precautions before you get on the plane. It's
too late when you've already started to feel sick. Take a motion
sickness drug before you get on the plane. Some can make you drowsy,
but that's good on a long flight !
* Teeshirt - airplanes can get quite cold, so
always keep a
jacket or sweatshirt nearby if you need them. Some airlines provide
blankets, but don't count on it.
* Arrive lost at your destination.
Okay, you've just landed at your destination
airport, and got
your luggage back. What do you do now ? No idea. Feel those stress
levels rising again ! Before you travel, check out your destination on
the internet. Airport 50 miles out of town ? In that case, you don't
want to use a taxi if you can avoid it. You should pre-plan your bus or
train journey before you leave home.
Follow the above tips and you'll arrive relaxed
and stress free, ready to enjoy your vacation or business trip.
