The post What Happens When You Miss Your Connecting Flight? appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>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.

]]>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.
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.
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.

]]>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.
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; itβs significantly more than what you get in economy, even extra-legroom economy seats, and I value that.”
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.

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