What should I pay attention to when traveling by plane?

Traveling abroad, eating, living, traveling and buying entertainment, each link has different precautions. Flying is the first step in the journey. Personally, there are five points to pay attention to:

1. Leave enough waiting time.

Generally speaking, on domestic flights, you should arrive at the airport at least one hour in advance; For international flights, you should arrive at the airport at least two hours in advance. If it coincides with the Golden Week holiday and there are many passengers, it is even more necessary to set aside enough time to avoid panic.

Know and confirm the way to the airport in advance, and know the distance from downtown to the airport.

For example, the traffic in domestic first-tier cities and international metropolises is relatively congested. If it is convenient, you'd better choose the airport express line to avoid the trouble caused by traffic jams. In some cities, there are several airports. If you want to know which airport it is, don't confuse it, such as Shanghai, new york, Washington, London and so on.

By the way, in China, it is said that the airport farthest from the urban area is Lanzhou Zhongchuan Airport, about 70 kilometers.

2. Know the baggage regulations of airlines in advance.

Every airline has different regulations on carrying luggage (checked luggage and hand luggage). Even for the same airline, on different routes, the regulations for carrying luggage are different. Before departure, I mainly understand three aspects: first, the amount of luggage; The second is the weight and size of luggage; The third is the regulations on carrying articles. In addition to contraband, special attention should be paid to the regulations on carrying liquids.

In addition, if it is a transfer, it is necessary to know in advance whether the baggage will arrive at the final destination directly or whether it needs to be picked up at the transfer station at one time.

3. About boarding procedures

First of all, prepare the boarding certificate; The second is to know in advance whether you can check in online. If you can do it online and there is no checked baggage, you can save the time for boarding on the day of departure. Third, it is best to lock and mark the checked baggage; Fourth, if you have any questions about flying, you can take the time to ask the ground crew.

4. See the boarding gate clearly and pay attention to the radio.

Look carefully at the boarding gate on the ticket. If the airport is large, it is recommended to confirm the location of the boarding gate after entering the waiting area. In addition, pay attention to the airport broadcast, because sometimes the boarding gate will be temporarily changed.

If you are traveling abroad, passengers usually go to duty-free shops. Don't forget the boarding time because of shopping addiction.

If there is a lot of luggage, it is recommended to queue up in advance. Those who board the plane first don't have to worry about having nowhere to put their luggage.

5. Precautions on the plane

After boarding the plane, first, you should obey the arrangement of the flight attendants, and the safety instructions you should see should be seen; Second, if you travel long distances, you must get up regularly. Third, a person must carry important documents with him when flying; Fourth, if it is an overseas route, you need to fill in the entry card. Flight attendants usually give them out in advance on the plane. You can fill it out before you get off the plane.

The above five points are my flight precautions for reference.

Have a nice trip!
