Choosing to stay in an Airbnb over a hotel can be a great way to save money while traveling, but the price difference often comes at a cost. Many Airbnb owners require guests to do excessive chores before departure, whereas at hotels, daily housekeeping is factored into the price. For many travelers, the convenience is worth it, though that doesn’t mean we can’t take a few minutes to tidy up and make things easier for hotel staff. Read on to learn more about what you should clean and what’s fine to leave.

Bathrooms

Before you check out, do a quick scan of the bathroom to make sure you’ve packed all of your personal toiletries and disposed of any trash. It’s fine to leave the big stuff, like wiping down surfaces and cleaning the shower, for housekeeping, but there’s no reason they should need to clean up your dirty tissues. Additionally, make sure all towels are either hanging or in a pile on the bathroom floor, as wet towels can damage wooden furniture.

Beds

Bedsheets are always changed between guests, so there’s no point in taking the time to make the bed yourself. However, it’s a good idea to shake out the sheets to make sure you haven’t left any personal items, and if you’ve used additional blankets or pillows, return them to their original places.

Other Clutter

Once you’ve packed your belongings and thrown away all trash, give the room a final sweep to put any remaining miscellaneous items in their appropriate places. For example, if your room includes a kitchenette, put used dishes in the sink or dishwasher. Leave room service trays on an elevated surface so no one trips over them.

Being considerate of fellow passengers and the cabin crew is crucial to ensure a pleasant and comfortable flight for everyone. Here are some in-flight etiquette tips that can help you have a smoother journey and maintain a positive atmosphere onboard.

Respect Personal Space

Space can be limited on flights, so it’s essential to respect the personal space of others. Avoid hogging the armrest, reclining your seat abruptly, or allowing your belongings to spill over into neighboring seats.

Keep the Noise Down

Noise levels can significantly impact the in-flight experience. Use headphones when watching movies, listening to music, or playing games. If you’re traveling with children, ensure they are entertained in a way that doesn’t disturb other passengers.

Be Considerate When Reclining

Reclining your seat is perfectly fine, but be mindful of the timing and consider the comfort of the person behind you. Slowly recline your seat and avoid doing so during meal service or when the passenger behind you is using their tray table.

Limit the Use of Strong Fragrances and Practice Good Hygiene

Strong perfumes or colognes can be overwhelming in the confined space of an airplane. Opt for a light and subtle fragrance or consider going without. Also, maintain good personal hygiene.

Respect Quiet Hours

Many flights have designated quiet hours during which the cabin lights are dimmed to encourage rest. If you’re not planning to sleep, consider dimming your personal screen and keeping conversations quiet.

Follow Cabin Crew Instructions

Cabin crew members are there to ensure the safety and comfort of all passengers. Listen carefully to their announcements, follow their instructions, and be patient during the boarding and disembarking processes.

There are few people who enjoy their time spent on an airplane, especially on a long flight of eight or more hours. With how cramped and packed flights are, you end up at the mercy of strangers whose inconsiderate behavior can really affect you. So in the spirit of treating people how you want to be treated, here are three etiquette rules you should always follow while flying.

Don’t Overstay in the Aisle

There are some people who really like to take their time in the aisle on flights, taking forever to put their things in the overhead bin and spending much of the flight getting up or just standing in the aisle. This can be super annoying whenever somebody else needs to use the aisle to, you know, get around, so try not to be one of those people.

Middle Seat Gets First Pick of Armrests

Everybody knows that the middle seat is the worst one on a flight. You get not one but two people encroaching in on your personal space. The one thing that makes it slightly tolerable is that you know you’ll get both armrests. So if you’re sitting next to a middle-seater, give them that armrest. They need it.

Watch Your Smells and Noises

There’s no escaping other people on airplanes, which means that every word you speak, every burp you burp, every food you bring onto the plane, and the loud volume leaking from your headphones will all be experienced by everybody around you. So for Pete’s sake, have mercy.
