Flight Tips

Have you plan for a vacation abroad? or riding in a plane? Here are the most common tips on preparing before your flight so as to avoid unnecessary mistakes. Riding in a plane also takes a lot of patience most especially if your destination is very distant and boredom is most common to passengers. Therefore, we need to consider some helpful tips to help us ease the inconveniences during the flight.

• Read up on your destination. Know where you’re flying to. Get to the airport with plenty of time to spare. A two-hour check-in period not only gives you time to get through the various security checks, but also allows you to browse the airport shops.
• Wear comfortable clothing. You want to relax, so avoid business suits if suitable. However, do make sure you look smart and presentable – no pajamas please! Eat lightly before getting onboard. The plane is a food-free zone, although you can bring some snacks of your own if you like. If you’ve eaten too much before taking off, you’re likely to feel uncomfortable in mid-air.
• Do not bring food into other countries if you’re flying out of the Philippines. Add something to make your luggage easy to spot when claiming your bags. Watch your weight limit: 20 kg for check-in luggage and seven kg for carry-on bags.
• Make sure you turn off mobile phone. Its airwaves interfere with the plane’s electronic signals.
• Yawning helps to release the pressure in your ears.
• Try some in-flight exercises: 1. Gently circle your ankles in a clockwise motion five times, then do it counter clockwise. 2. Roll your neck gently, making sure to open your mouth when you put your head back. 3. Stand up as often as possible to keep your circulation going. 4. Stretch.
