If stickers are not your thing either, wrap your bags in colorful caution tape. The caution tape would also make them faster to spot. Do whatever makes you comfortable but you might as well show off your artistic flair while at it!
#3 – The best way to pack your luggage
Don’t be someone who lets their breakable objects roll back and forth in their suitcase until they break. Place any glass, plates, or other fragile items in protective packaging like thick cardboard while leaving no room for them to move inside the package and your bag.
Place heavier items on the sides of the fragile ones to reduce the chances of them breaking if—when your luggage is dropped or put under something heavy. Because the chances of that happening to your bag are high enough.
#4 – Sit by the window, enjoy your nap
If you’re one of the people who put on sleep masks as soon as they board the plane, you came to the right place. Or did you? Because the other right place for you is the window seat.
Unless you came from the future, where all planes have comfy beds in them, you will be sleeping in the plane while sitting up. Since that is the case, you can book the window seat because then you’ll be able to lean on the wall beside you, instead of letting your head hung low.
Oh, and don’t forget to take a flight pillow with you and lower the risk of neck pain.
Also, many passengers tend to avoid picking the middle seat, obviously because it’s the most uncomfortable of the other options. You can avoid the pain of being squeezed between two other people with shoulders!
#5 – Do this trick to avoid airport lines
All travelers like you wish they could teleport to their planes the moments they set foot at the airport, what with the long queues and all.
● To speed up the customs procedures when your turn comes, keep all your small belongings in the pockets that allow you easier access. For example, rather than putting your items in your jean’s back pocket, keep them all in a jacket and check it in.
As for liquids and valuables, keep those together in a carry-on bag so that you won’t have to dig around for them separately and waste more time than needed.
● To spend less time waiting at the checkpoint line, choose the one that is farthest to the left. Why? Because most people are right-handed, they often automatically flock to the spot on their right. If you notice that some lines are shorter than others, it’s no coincidence. And it’s also your chance to make things go faster. Don’t overlook it.
