Secrets of the perfect flight

Here are 12 useful airport tricks that can make your trip easier and more comfortable

1. Use automated kiosks like Global Entry. This will allow you to skip passport control and long lines.
2. Fly on night flights. This will save you time, money and large crowds.
3. Bring alcohol up to 100 ml. If it fits in a 20 x 20 cm plastic bag with a zip, then it is allowed on board.
4. Choose the queue on the left. Since most people are right-handed, the queues on the right are often longer.
5. Bring an empty plastic bottle with you. This will allow you to fill it with water for free at the airport, instead of paying for expensive drinks.
6. Use the Seat Guru website to choose the best seat on a particular plane.
7. Watch for airfare promotions. Don’t be shy about asking about promotions and discounts.
8. Take morning flights to avoid turbulence, which most often occurs in the afternoon.
9. Look for cheaper parking outside the airport. They are often significantly cheaper.
10. Use family lounges at airports if you are traveling with children. This will help you relax while your child plays.
11. Take a photo of the parking space number. This will make it easier to find your car when you return.
12. If your luggage is slightly overweight, wear your heaviest clothes. This will help you avoid excess weight fees.

These simple tips will help you save time and money, and make your trips more comfortable!
