  1. Always use the incognito mode when booking a hotel or flight ticket online. Sites track visits and can easily increase the price on the next booking simply because you have already bought from them.



  2. Never drink coffee before or during a flight. Coffee will increase the heartbeat and increase the feeling of panic.
  3. The number of drinks that can be ordered on board is unlimited, unless it is a low-cost airline. You can ask for two glasses of juice and then take another for dessert.
  4. A roll of food film will be much cheaper than baggage winding services directly at the airport.






Security

  2. Take some bank cards with you. If you suddenly forget one somewhere or it is taken away from you, calmly conduct the procedure of transferring funds and blocking and continue your journey.
