If you don’t take this seriously, your vacations are going to be a terrible experience added to other not-so-pleasing social and cultural experiences, perhaps, in your destination.
Flight delays

Despite all what you would go through at the check-in point, plus long security lines and no vacant seat at your gate, the top worse thing that can happen to you is that your flight gets canceled or delayed if you are lucky enough.
That is why it is handy to have travel insurance to get compensated for the delay. This is very possible to happen due to extreme weather or any other security issue.
Waiting is not going to be very pleasing, but at least make sure you get compensation, otherwise, you would be late and broke. Even the best online travel booking sites are not going to warn you about this. So be prepared for this, both mentally and physically.
Last-minute gate change

The funny thing that can happen to you is that you get early at the airport. The check-in point phase goes just fine, then luckily there are no long security lines, and you find vacant and comfortable seats at your gate, but then the unexpected happens: someone decides to change your gate in the last minute.
Well, anything that happens in the last minute sounds terrible. At this stage, you are supposed to be aboard your flight, fastening your seat belt, and getting ready for takeoff.
The catastrophic thing that can occur is that the gate through which you are supposed to get to your plane is on the other side of the terminal. Well, now that is a real disaster.
It is very important to stay calm as much as you can before getting a panic attack and ending up in the ER in need of emergency medical care instead of being aboard your flight.
