Hot Tips For Flying

By Francis Mitchell


Booking your family holiday overseas and flying can and should be an enjoyable time of the summer holidays. To keep things running smoothly we offer the following advise.

Long haul flights require a little bit of pre planning and booking the nest seats for you on them is number one on your list. This can be arranged at the booking stage of your flight which is probably the best time to arrange this. A preference for window view or perhaps if you have long legs then an aisle seat would suit you best. Look over the lay out of the seats and select the ones which you and your family like the best.

The emergency exits are normally not suitable for young people for obvious reasons and should not be booked if you are travelling with anyone under 18 years as most likely the stewardess will ask you to leave and take seats in other parts of the plane.

Delays are all part of flying and unfortunately can not be avoided. By booking flights which are non stop to your final destination you can cut down on any delays at stop over airports which are out with your control.

Watch out for pick pockets in the airport terminal. Not everyone is flying out and people will be studying you without your knowlegde as your guard will be down due to holiday mode and feeling safe within the airport.

Making sure you arrive at your airport terminal in time for your flight is a definite plus. No running around until the last minute then missing your flight. Most airports are now asking passengers to arrive at least three hours before take off due to extra security measures and the time it takes passengers to go through.

Make sure your paperwork is in order before arriving. This will include an up to date passport and health cards. You don't want to arrive at an airport and be turned away due to incorrect paperwork.

Making sure you have a seat on board a plane by checking into your flight on the web. Have a safe flight.
