HOLIDAY TRAVEL TIPS
Allow Extra Time. Traffic congestion this time of year is just as bad as busy airport traffic. Leave home early to avoid feeling panicked on the road before you make it to the airport.
General rule of thumb is to arrive two hours before your flight, to be safe around the holidays arrive three hour early, read, shop and listen to music before a flight to avoid that feeling of being rushed when arriving extra early.
Choose Early/Late Flights. Travelling while everyone is sleeping allows extra time and fewer people in security lines. If flights are cancelled you have better chance of finding another flight later in the day.
Use Apps. Apps like FlightView, FlightAware, Flight Board, Flightradar24 and FlightStats relieve some of the stress by tracking the status of your flight and send regular updates if the flight is delayed or cancelled. GateGuru sends approximate wait times for security lines.
Get Notifications. Sign up for an airline’s flight status text notifications for any changes that gives you a leg up to other passengers knowing the status of your trip. With important flight updates and information, airlines can notify you of any changes or if there is a cancellation.
Become a Member. Membership privileges can really make all the difference during the holiday travel season. Loyalty programs like dedicate special privileges and services to their valued customers like lounge areas with free food, boarding the plane first, and shorter lines.
Plan for the Unexpected. Holiday travel frustration is tradition, don't forget to breath and not stress about little mishaps that are bound to happen. Once you arrive at your detestation your family and friends can share the horror stories of Holiday travel over Christmas dinner and laugh. Be patient, and kind during the stressful Holiday rush.
