This article will guide you on how to travel by plane in the most comfortable way, from packing to landing.

Steps

1. 1 Print your boarding pass at home.
2. 2 If you can, try to fit all of your clothes in your carry-on bag.
3. 3 Always check if your bag will be comfortable to carry (if it has wheels or straps, if it's a backpack, etc.)etc.). This will make it easier for you to move around the airport with her.
4. 4 Take the smallest bag possible (Note: if you are shopping for souvenirs, make sure there is enough space in the bag for them).
5. 5 Roll up any non-wrinkle clothing (this will save you more space).
6. 6 It can be a lot of fun to look out the window while flying, especially for young children. Be aware, however, that you can get seasick, so take your air sickness pills with you just in case!
7. 7 Check all the items and be sure to bring everything you need.
8. 8 Do not put the camera with the film in translucent baggage (this will ruin the film).
9. 9 Take something with you so you don't get bored. Any device with headphones will do so that the sound does not annoy the rest of the passengers.
10. 10 Wear comfortable, warm clothing. It is better to wear something with a collar to protect your neck, because there is sometimes a very cold air conditioner on the plane. In any case, a few spare warm clothes will not be superfluous.
11. 11 Wear sandals or other open shoes if the climate permits (if not, wear shoes that are easy to remove). This will be useful at the security checkpoint at the airport, where you will be asked to remove it.
12. 12 Leave your home early so that you have enough time for passport control and security, as well as not to miss your flight. Plan to arrive there one and a half or even two hours ahead of departure time. Who knows, maybe you will stand in line for about an hour at the security checkpoint.
13. 13 Make sure you have the change in your wallet (so as not to take it out at the security checkpoint).
14. 14 Only put the essentials in your pockets.
15. 15 Do not wear a belt or any other clothing with metal parts.
16. 16 If you have air sickness or want to sleep, be sure to bring your proper belongings.
17. 17 Put all your valuables in your carry-on baggage or in your pockets (this will ensure they are not lost / stolen along with your baggage).
18. 18 Chew gum if your ears get blocked during takeoff or landing. Specialty tablets can be especially helpful in high atmospheric pressure, so take them if you see fit.
19. 19 Always carry medicines and medical supplies with you on the plane. By checking them in your shared baggage, you risk losing access to medication if your baggage is lost or delayed.
20. 20 Always check to see if you are eligible for a business class seat (see the article "How to get a first class seat").
21. 21 At the end of your flight, be ready to collect your luggage by getting off the plane as soon as possible. Otherwise, you will have to wait for your luggage for a while.

Tips

• Ideally, you should bring an MP3 player or iPod, sucking candy or chewing gum, and books (about one or two if you read quickly).
• Remember rule 1-1-1: you can take on board the aircraft no more than 100 ml of liquid in a bottle with a volume of no more than 1 liter and only 1 bag per person to check in as general luggage.
• Take your frequent flyer card with you and show it at the airport to receive credits for your flight (you can use them to buy anything on board). Sometimes they are reset after flight.
• Remember that you cannot bring water with you to the airport. However, you can bring food, so if you want to spend money wisely, then take food with you. All items at the airport are prohibitively expensive, so remember that you always have a fallback.

Warnings

• Please note that many airlines now charge additional fees if your main baggage weighs more than 22kg (50lbs). If you are in doubt (or if you are planning to do a lot of shopping) that the weight is not exceeding the norm, it is better to bring two bags with you. Many airlines allow passengers to carry two bags (22kg / 50lbs each) at no additional cost. Check your airline's baggage weight limits.
• Stay up to date with new rules for liquids and gels. (You may just need to buy new toothpaste, hair products, etc. from the first suitable store.)
• Many discount airlines charge extra. a fee even for the first checked baggage, and it increases with every next bag.

What do you need

• Medicines and medical devices (always take them with you on the plane, never check them in your shared baggage)
• Passport and visas
