Security: Going Light - Benefits of Traveling Light

- Security: Going light on your baggage greatly reduces the need to check baggage or entrust fellow travelers. There is much less risk of losing the baggage due to theft, damage, or misrouting.

Economy: You eliminate extra baggage charges if there are any by your airlines. You do not have to depend on taxis, limos, and private commute, but can easily take public transportation. If your baggage has wheels, you can even walk if the place to visit is pretty close-by. You don’t have to pay porters and the like to carry stuff around for you.

Keep these two travel tips in mind, be Travelite, and have a wonderful tour.

Several Air Travel Tips

- On flights of 4 hours or more:

Request an aisle seat when you reach your gate if you have been assigned to a middle row or window seat.
Wear comfortable/casual pants/shoes - sometimes it gets cold and there may not be extra blankets-they are so small anyways.
Bring tea bags and ask flight attendants for warm water.
Bring a washcloth to the bathroom, dab into warm water, and breathe into it, as cabin air is especially dry.
Bring your own headphones.
Bring instant soup mix in a Ziploc bag.
Stow all small valuables not in the floor or overhead bins, but in the seat back pocket in front of you.
Bring Kleenex if you are prone to allergies/sinus.
Of course, bring reading material and [crossword] puzzles.
Consider buying or making a bigger blanket for the plane-I made one to cover my length and waist and it makes for a super comfortable flight.
Always be aware of beverage service and food service when timing your bathroom visits.
Whatever time zone you are traveling to, sync up to it on the way over so you can adjust quicker.

Smoking on International Flights?

- For all you smokers, on long flights bring a pack of nicotine patches or nicotine gum to curb the cravings. Jonesing for a smoke on an international flight can drive you crazy. Follow the usage/safety directions.

Space Limitations

- One obvious problem on planes is lack of space. This does vary considerably from airline to airline, and from airplane model to airplane model. If you travel a lot, you might want to sample different airlines and airplanes to determine your preferences. If you are very tall, you may prefer an aisle seat. This will hopefully give you a chance to stretch your legs into the aisle from time to time. Even better is getting a 'bulkhead seat': there is usually more legroom in those positions. Be advised, however, that those seats go quickly; it pays to book ahead!
