23 24 25 [Next] - Upgrade as early as possible. Upgradable seats are limited. Try to upgrade as soon as you book your flight or as soon as you are allowed to upgrade according to the frequent flyer program's rule. Some airlines upgrade you right away; others automatically upgrade you at a set amount of time before departure, yet others require you to call or logon to request the upgrades when the upgrade window opens.

I once had my corporate travel agent book my flight with a paper ticket, and it was sent to my home address. I'm home very infrequently and I didn't get the paper ticket in time. When at the airport, while waiting for them to clear up the problem of my not having a paper ticket in hand, I missed the connecting flight. UpgradeBuddy.com 18-Dec-2003 UpgradeBuddy.com ID1472 - If you don't want to stand around in an airport for 3 hours trying to find transportation to your destination, and you don't want to spend a fortune, a bus or airport shuttle is the way to go. Most large airports have them. To shorten the time even more, call ahead and reserve one. It doesn't cost extra. The companies are not all the same, so try to get a recommendation from a local travel agent. Also, when you make your reservation, make sure you find out WHERE to catch your ride. Airports are large and confusing, but most have specific signs for transportation services. Make sure you're at the right bus stop. 1-Jan-2000 Frank Blakely, Southern California Coach ID1182 - Wear fire retardant clothing, like wool, when travelling. Nylon and synthetic clothing such as panty hose can melt to your skin if you are caught in a fire on board. 1-Jan-2000 Niki Steadman ID1197 - If you have a scale at home, and you know what the weight limit is, then you can weigh your bags at home - and if your bag is too heavy, then you need to lighten your load by removing non-essential items. 1-Jan-2000 Sabrina Oettle ID1188 Would You Like to Add a Travel Tip?We welcome QUALITY travel tips from our users.Note: you will be required to enter the characters from a security image, so please make sure that you have your browser set to view images.
