If you are making a long-distance trip across the globe, like it or not, an overnight layover might be in the cards for you. This certainly isn’t the most comfortable option for a trip, but there are some strategies that you can follow to at least save money while doing so.

Be sure to do these three things if you want to save during an overnight layover.

Stay in the Airport, If You Can

Staying in the airport that your connection takes place in might not be the most luxurious option, but at most international airports, you can sleep inside the terminal without being bothered by security people and without paying a dime.

Pack Plenty of Food

Instead of having to buy an expensive airport meal during your overnight stay, you should pack and be prepared for the hours you’ll spend waiting for your next flight. Bringing food and snacks is a great way to ensure that you won’t spend too much.

Hotel Necessary? Find One with an Airport Shuttle

If you decide not to spend the night at the airport or that sleeping in a nearby hotel is the best option, be sure to find a hotel with an airport shuttle. This will cut down on transportation costs to and from the airport.

Have‌ ‌you‌ ‌ever‌ ‌found‌ ‌yourself‌ ‌bored‌ ‌out‌ ‌of‌ ‌your‌ ‌mind‌ ‌during‌ ‌a‌ ‌long‌ ‌airport‌ ‌layover?‌ ‌It’s‌ ‌easy‌ ‌to‌ ‌despair‌ ‌when‌ ‌you‌ ‌have‌ ‌more‌ ‌than‌ ‌a‌ ‌couple‌ ‌of‌ ‌hours‌ ‌between‌ ‌flights‌ ‌if‌ ‌you‌ ‌don’t‌ ‌know‌ ‌how‌ ‌to‌ ‌take‌ ‌advantage‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌layover‌ ‌and‌ ‌kill‌ ‌time.‌ ‌ ‌

Here‌ ‌are‌ ‌three‌ ‌great‌ ‌ideas‌ ‌for‌ ‌how‌ ‌to‌ ‌use‌ ‌your‌ ‌time‌ ‌during‌ ‌your‌ ‌next‌ ‌multi-hour‌ ‌layover!‌ ‌

Exploring‌ ‌the‌ ‌City

 ‌If‌ ‌your‌ ‌layover‌ ‌is‌ ‌longer‌ ‌than‌ ‌3‌ ‌or‌ ‌4‌ ‌hours,‌ ‌it‌ ‌might‌ ‌just‌ ‌be‌ ‌worth‌ ‌it‌ ‌for‌ ‌you‌ ‌to‌ ‌take‌ ‌a‌ ‌trip‌ ‌from‌ ‌the‌ ‌airport‌ ‌to‌ ‌the‌ ‌center‌ ‌of‌ ‌your‌ ‌layover‌ ‌city‌ ‌to‌ ‌do‌ ‌a‌ ‌mini-visit!‌ ‌City‌ ‌centers‌ ‌are‌ ‌usually‌ ‌accessible‌ ‌by‌ ‌public‌ ‌transportation‌ ‌options‌ ‌in‌ ‌a‌ ‌relatively‌ ‌quick‌ ‌time,‌ ‌so‌ ‌this‌ ‌could‌ ‌be‌ ‌the‌ ‌perfect‌ ‌solution.‌ ‌

Working‌ ‌in‌ ‌a‌ ‌Cafe‌

While‌ ‌most‌ ‌of‌ ‌us‌ ‌travel‌ ‌to‌ ‌head‌ ‌to‌ ‌leisure‌ ‌destinations‌ ‌and‌ ‌to‌ ‌forget‌ ‌about‌ ‌work,‌ ‌why‌ ‌not‌ ‌use‌ ‌a‌ ‌few‌ ‌hours‌ ‌on‌ ‌your‌ ‌next‌ ‌layover‌ ‌to‌ ‌be‌ ‌productive‌ ‌and‌ ‌get‌ ‌some‌ ‌work‌ ‌out‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌way?‌ ‌Most‌ ‌airports‌ ‌feature‌ ‌a‌ ‌variety‌ ‌of‌ ‌cafes‌ ‌with‌ ‌free‌ ‌Wi-Fi‌ ‌access,‌ ‌which‌ ‌are‌ ‌perfect‌ ‌for‌ ‌doing‌ ‌some‌ ‌work.‌ ‌

Plane‌ ‌Watching‌ ‌ ‌

Are‌ ‌you‌ ‌an‌ ‌aviation‌ ‌geek‌ ‌or‌ ‌someone‌ ‌who‌ ‌has‌ ‌always‌ ‌been‌ ‌interested‌ ‌in‌ ‌plane‌ ‌spotting?‌ ‌If‌ ‌so,‌ ‌a‌ ‌long‌ ‌layover‌ ‌is‌ ‌the‌ ‌perfect‌ ‌opportunity‌ ‌for‌ ‌you‌ ‌to‌ ‌check‌ ‌out‌ ‌the‌ ‌airplanes,‌ ‌big‌ ‌and‌ ‌small,‌ ‌which‌ ‌pass‌ ‌through‌ ‌an‌ ‌airport.‌ ‌Many‌ ‌airports‌ ‌have‌ ‌specific‌ ‌lounge‌ ‌areas‌ ‌that‌ ‌provide‌ ‌a‌ ‌great‌ ‌view‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌runways‌ ‌for‌ ‌landings‌ ‌and‌ ‌takeoffs.‌ ‌

Flying can be a nerve-wracking experience, especially if you don’t like heights. From the stress of getting through security and finding your gate to the uncomfortable feeling of turbulence, it’s easy to understand why some people simply cannot handle this method of travel.

Nervous flying is a fact of life, but you can take some steps to put yourself more at ease during air travel. Here are some tips that will help you have a better experience.

Fly During the Day

Everything is a little less daunting during the day, right? Those who don’t like flying usually find the experience at night to be even more disorienting and uncomfortable than usual. Go for daytime air travel, which is a better option.

Come Prepared with Things to Watch or Read

Nothing is better than a distraction. Be sure to bring a book, a magazine, or a device full of movies or TV series to watch during your flight. This is the best way to take your mind of flying and distract your brain completely from the process.

Inform Yourself

Believe it or not, air travel is actually really, really safe. In fact, air travel is the safest form of mass transportation by far. A serious accident only happens once in over 2 million flights nowadays. Put your mind at ease by simply looking at the raw numbers.

Taking a long flight might seem daunting but there are plenty of ways to make your journey more comfortable. Try these 5 tips to ease you into your next vacation.

Keep Your Feet Warm

Your feet can get very cold on a long flight. It is important to keep them moving and walk around, but if you want to stay really cozy and comfortable, invest in a good pair of slipper socks. 

Comfortable Clothes

Dressing for the plane can be a difficult task, especially if you are going from a cold to hot climate. Loose layers are key. Being able to remove or add clothes to keep your temperature comfortable will help you relax and sleep. Pack a light sarong, which can be used in hot and cold weather, or as an extra pillow.

Watch a Series

Watching films can make a flight seem less boring. If you really want the time to “fly”, watch a binge-worthy TV series.

Snacks and Drinks

Although you cannot bring fluid through customs, you can bring empty bottles. Fill up as soon as possible and make sure you stay hydrated. You can also bring food and snacks onto a plane so you don’t need to worry about spending a fortune at the airport.

Break up the journey

If a long haul flight is still too daunting, consider breaking the journey and staying in a hotel for a night or two before you continue to your final destination. Most people want to get somewhere fast and don’t realize that breaking the journey can often be a cheaper alternative. It has the added bonus of exploring more countries too.
