Helpful tips for flying

Packing your bags thoroughly and taking time to enjoy the food and shopping at the airport can help you relieve the anxiety before long trips.

Traveling by plane has always offered advantages in terms of safety and time savings compared to other modes of transportation. In recent years, airline promotions have created many opportunities for passengers to travel on cheap air tickets, making travel more convenient.

Here are some helpful tips to make your flight more enjoyable and comfortable.

Pack your luggage efficiently.

You should carefully categorize items and belongings to determine which are suitable for carry-on or checked baggage. Valuable items such as laptops, iPads, and cameras should be placed in carry-on baggage. You should also consider the weather at your destination to pack warm clothing in your carry-on.

For liquids like cosmetics, perfumes, and shower gels, you are not allowed to carry containers larger than 100 ml in your carry-on baggage. If you want to carry more than 100 ml of liquid, you should pack it in checked baggage, but the maximum allowed is 5 liters in containers no larger than 5 liters. The product must still be unopened, labeled, and show the manufacturer's origin.

To avoid mixing up your luggage, you should mark your suitcases with colored stickers or any other easily visible markings. If the whole family is traveling together, choosing suitcases of the same color for everyone is quite helpful.

Remember, your clothing should not have any metal embellishments, as they will cause you trouble when going through security.

To save time and avoid queues, you should check in online or at a kiosk instead of contacting the airline counter directly.

Enjoy every moment.

Many people often feel stressed or nervous before long trips. To alleviate unnecessary anxiety, you can relax with the pleasures of food and drinks. At Tan Son Nhat Airport, in addition to traditional Vietnamese dishes at Hoa Mai restaurant, you can also choose from many delicious and unique Asian dishes at The Phoenix restaurant in the domestic departure hall.

Typically, business class lounges are reserved only for business class passengers or those with higher airline membership tiers. In some cases, you may have access to the lounge, but your companions may not.

Here, you can enjoy food, drinks, and many other amenities such as bathrooms, massage machines, shoe polishing machines, and office equipment (computers, printers, etc.).
