Flying can be pretty stressful if you aren’t prepared. Long security lines, overpriced food, crying toddlers next to you on the plane, and delayed schedules are just some of the reasons your travel experience may go downhill. Though some situations are inevitable, proper planning can help avoid stress while traveling. Here are some tips to test out on your next vacation.
Bring Earplugs
Simple earplugs are usually just a few dollars at most local convenience stores and are absolutely worth it. No more waking up from a screaming toddler!
Pack Snacks
Because who really wants to spend $12 on a sandwich? Airport food is often expensive and airplane food is usually tasteless. Your best bet is packing a meal from home.
Arrive Early
Though it may seem tedious to arrive to the airport hours before the actual flight, it’s always better to be safe than sorry. Why take the risk of missing a flight?
Hand Sanitizer
A good quality hand sanitizer is a life saver on a long haul flight. Airports and airplanes can be extra dirty and full of bacteria, so some disinfectant can come in handy.
