Won’t Wrinkle Your Clothing

My sister is so pick about her clothing. Not only does she have firm opinions on how it should be hung and folded, she is also obsessive about how it should be packed. That means she’ll spend hours making sure it organized correctly in her suitcases.

Last Christmas I had a great idea. I decided I would buy her some new luggage as a gift so that maybe she wouldn’t have to spend so much time packing for her next trip. The Voyager 3 PC Set that I bought her in roomy and closes without smashing freshly-ironed clothing.

What The Airlines Don’t Tell You

Never accept the first fare quoted. Half the time, some other airline’s flight within hours of the one you booked has a special, less expensive deal.

Take advantage of “illegal” connections. These are connecting fights usually less than 45 minutes apart-too close for airlines to feel safe in making them connect. Result.- These flights usually do not even show up on the computer when your trip is being routed.  Have your agent write up your flight on two separate tickets. The second is for the illegal connection that originates at your transfer point.

Example: You arrive at O’Hare in Chicago on the way to San Francisco.
Instead of waiting three hours for the safe connecting flight, you already have a separate ticket from O’Hare to San Francisco on an illegal connection. If you miss the connection, you turn that ticket in for the next available flight. Cost for two separate tickets.- No more than one through ticket. Baggage.- Waiting for it to be unloaded can cost you valuable time on this tight schedule. Best.- Travel with
carry-on luggage.

Some supersaver fares are so low that even if you can’t stay as long as their requirements (some ally seven days), you will save by buying two round-trip tickets-one from your home to your destination for the day you want to leave and one from your destination to your home for
the day you want to return. The total may be less than the regularround-trip fare.

If you miss your flight and there’s just time to catch another, go right to the other airline’s departure gate instead of to its ticket counter. If it has an empty seat, the second airline will usually honor the ticket for the flight you missed.

Best seat in the plane. After first class, the choices center on your priorities. For comfort and a smooth ride, pick a seat over the wings. For silence, sit as far forward as possible, but avoid the galley and rest rooms. For leg room, try the first row or seats beside the emergency exits.

Then sit back and enjoy your flight to your fabulous vacation!

Wherever you’re headed, you’ll want to feel healthy and strong.
Here are some helpful tips for not being under the weather when you’re
 going above the clouds.

Here are just a few precautions you can take ahead of time:

Make sure your immunizations are current.
If possible, delay your trip if you’re not feeling well.
If you’re prone to air sickness, ask for a window seat over the wing.
If you have any health questions, or if you suffer from a chronic
ailment, motion sickness, or fear of flying, ask for advice from your
 physician.
Stress is bad for you. Reduce stress by allowing plenty of time to
check in and reach your departure gate.
Always carry your medication with you—never pack it in baggage you’re
 planning to check.

Wear loose, comfortable clothing and shoes for your flight.

There’s no easy way to fly anymore. Remember when commercials used to ask us to “fly the friendly skies?” We know now that we can’t trust this saying because just getting through the airport is a fight. Passing through security can take forever.

The only way to make travelling more convenient is to make sure you have a good set of luggage. My favorite luggage for getting through crowded airports is a Coleman luggage set. These sets are easy to maneuver and stylish at the same time.
