Always call the airline before leaving and check that your flight
is on time. This can help avoid unnecessary waiting time at the
airport due to delays.
And remember if your flight is delayed you may be entitled to
a refund, even if your ticket is 'Non-Refundable'.
Passengers wanting to change seat should ask at check-in as bulkhead
and exit row seats are allocated last and there may be spaces available.
If you have a long wait in between flight transfers it is worth
noting that for a one off fee you may be able to use the airline's
executive lounge (usually £15-£20).
Passengers suffering from ear pressure during flights should place
a hot cloth in a cup and hold it to your ear. This will actually
relieve the discomfort.
Passengers wishing to use a laptop during the flight should bring
the correct auto/air adapter along with power extension and charger.
Drinking alcohol on long hauls can prove disastrous. The pressurised
cabin effectively reduces tolerance to booze and many airlines now
actively prosecute drunken passengers or refuse entry onto aircraft
by passengers who have been drinking prior to flying. You may think
you're calming your nerves but it can actually have the opposite
effect.
