PASSRIDER TIP: QUICK TRAVEL TIPS

When you’re on the go, a few insider strategies can make your journey smoother:

  • Pack light for easy adjustments and quick changes. Don’t check a bag unless you absolutely must.

  • Scrutinize flight loads before and during your trip

  • Always have a backup plan, especially during irregular operations. That backup plan should include other airline travel.

  • Stay flexible to make the most of your travel experience.

Here are some newsworthy items in aviation this week. It would seem like every day, something is happening to an airplane:

SHARE THE NEWSLETTER

If you like this newsletter, please share with your friends, colleagues and family.

Travel videos tailored to what matters to you. Explore current travel topics and get tips to enhance your journey.

In this video, I talk about how to make yourself a little more comfortable when you fly a low-cost airline.

I address the different ways that you can upgrade your travel experience, such as by paying for a bigger seat, extra legroom, or priority boarding.

I also talk about the importance of reading the airline's baggage restrictions and abiding by them.

Finally, I encourage viewers to share their own tips for upgrading their travel experience on low-cost airlines.

TRAVEL INSURANCE

A dear friend of mine recently fell ill while on holiday and, unfortunately, didn’t have travel insurance. She had to pay out of pocket for a doctor and nurse to visit her at home for treatment.

Thankfully, after four days, she recovered enough to fly back home for further care.

This experience is a reminder that travel insurance is as essential as booking your flights and hotel—it’s a crucial part of your journey. It offers peace of mind when you’re on the road, which is why I always carry an annual policy.

Consider getting travel insurance for each trip or an annual plan. You never know when you’ll need it—until you do.

Note: If you purchase travel insurance via this link, I receive a small commission. Thank you in advance.

TRAVEL CREDIT CARD OFFERS

If you use credit cards, consider one that earns points for every dollar spent, helping you travel nearly free when the time comes.

Here are some travel offers that recently arrived in my mailbox.

Note: I earn points as a commission if you apply and are approved for any of these cards. Thank you!
