While many travelers do plenty of planning before they embark on their journey, issues such as flight delays are unavoidable. Worryingly, this tardiness can result in your missing your connecting flight. Here’s what happens if this unfortunate situation happens to you as well as what you can do about it.

To start off, do not panic. What you may not realize is that missing a connecting flight is actually a routine occurrence. Many US airlines such as Spirit and Allegiance will actually book you on the next available flight for free if you missed your connection due to the fault of the airline. In fact, this process may even be automated, whereby you’ll receive a text message confirmation that your flight has been changed.

Still, if you haven’t been booked on another flight or you don’t like the flight you’re on, then you’ll need to speak to a customer service representative. If this is the situation you find yourself in, then consider checking out flight options on the airline’s website so that you can suggest alternative flights that you would be open to taking instead. If there are no alternative flights for the day, then you may be able to get meal vouchers or even hotel accommodation from your airline, so make sure to check out all your options.

If you’re set to embark on a lengthy international flight, you may feel unsure about what to do in order to remain comfortable while remaining firmly in your seat. Here are some handy tips to help you make your long-haul flight as comfortable as possible.

Bring Some Snacks

As frequent flyers know, while airlines will provide meals on long-term flights, they are not always guaranteed to be in line with your tastes. That is why it’s always a good idea to bring some of your own snacks in case there isn’t enough food that tickles your fancy. Even if you enjoy your airline meal, there may be a large gap between that one and the next during which you may develop an appetite.

How You Dress is Crucial

Make sure that you wear clothes that are guaranteed to keep you feeling comfortable throughout your flight. This will make all the difference as you drift off to sleep on your flight. What’s more, by dressing in clothes such as sweatpants and loafers, you’ll make it easier to go through security as you won’t need to remove your belt and it will be far quicker to remove your shoes.

Get the Right Sleep Kit

Noise-canceling earphones, a neck pillow, and a soft blindfold are some of the essential items that you should have on hand in order to give you a peaceful sleep. All of these items can be found in the right sleep kit, which could be bought at the airport. You could also build your own sleep kit using your ideal products.

Do you wish that you could enjoy the perks of business class without paying exorbitant prices? Well, a premium economy seat can give you a taste of this life at a discount. Still, is the experience that you’ll receive in premium economy worth the price?

What is Premium Economy?

Premium economy seats are normally in front of economy seats on the plane and behind those in first or business class. While not as spacious as those in business class, premium economy seats give you more space between yourself and other passengers than regular economy seats while even letting you recline. Many of them also give you extra legroom.

What the Experts Say

Travel journalist Edward Russell explained that he finds premium economy seats to be beneficial on long-haul flights. “I often pay for premium economy on long-haul flights for the additional space; it’s significantly more than what you get in economy, even extra-legroom economy seats, and I value that.”

Premium Economy Offers More Than Extra Space

Premium economy on many airlines means more than simply getting extra legroom. Many airlines offer premium economy passengers special meal options as well as personalized service which is sure to be enjoyable if you’re in the mood for some special treatment.

Planning on taking a vacation and want to make sure your budget is utilized efficiently? Check out our top tips for bagging a cheap flight so that you can spend your money when you’re there, rather than on getting there.

Avoid Peak Times

If you have the freedom to book a vacation at any time, avoid the school holidays. Prices skyrocket around the summer break and at Christmas time, prices nearly tripled. The best time to book is on offpeak months like October and February.

Browse Incognito

When you repeatedly look at a flight, the prices increase. The airline sites do this to scare you into buying a ticket on the spot before the prices increase further. To avoid this, browse in private mode.

Use Skyscanner

Skyscanner is our favorite site for comparing flights. They offer the best prices and don’t randomly inflate costs.

Fly to a Nearby City

If you are going on a long trip, it might be worth flying to a cheaper city near your destination. For example, if you are traveling to Europe, you may be able to get a flight to somewhere like Venice for very cheap and then easily get the bus to your final destination. This is also a way to see more places.

Fly With Hand Luggage

Often, flights are affordable until you factor in checked luggage. To avoid these extra baggage fees, travel light. If you’re traveling with a friend, one checked suitcase between you along with your hand luggage should suffice.

Book Ahead of Time

If you know when and where you are headed, don’t hesitate. Tickets seldom get cheap over time. And there’s no time like the present.

Buy a Return

Buying a return flight or multi-city ticket will usually save you a few bucks down the line. At off-peak times, return flights and single flights are usually fairly similar in price anyway.
