• As many of you might have seen

before, I previously posted an

article on traveling hacks and how

to fly with the most comfort and

how to make your time in the

airport the most enjoyable

• Some extra tips involve always

arriving hours before your flight (or

other mode of transportation) as

well as being packed at least a day

in advance to avoid the realization
