3 mistakes when booking plane tickets that can ruin your trip: flight attendant advice
A flight attendant with many years of experience shared three common mistakes that travelers make when booking flights. According to her, these incorrect and risky decisions can lead to chaos, delays, and unnecessary stress during the trip.
The video featuring the aviation expert's advice went viral on Instagram. Her recommendations are particularly relevant during the peak summer travel season.
The first mistake is incorrectly calculating transfer time. Many passengers book flights that are very close to each other in time, which can turn into a disaster if the first flight is delayed.
The flight attendant recommends leaving at least 2 hours between flights for domestic travel and 3 hours for international travel. Avoid flights with a short layover (30 minutes) - it's too risky.
Another common mistake is booking flights for late departure times. Airplanes that depart during peak times at airports run the risk of being delayed for various reasons. The flight attendant recommends buying tickets for morning flights to minimize the risk of delays.
The third mistake is ignoring the airline's mobile app. Downloading the carrier's app after purchasing a ticket can make traveling much easier. Here you can get information about delays, gates, terminals, and other important data.
