Airports without the hassle

18/08/2015

Before you leave the house check that everyone had their passports, airline tickets, visas and insurnace policies.

Pack light - If possible travel with only hand luggage, it will save you both time at the luggage carousel and often money as you won't need to put anything in the hold.

Make sure that any electronic items that you are carrying in your hand luggage are fully charged.

If you use medication carry a supply in your hand luggage.

Weigh your luggage before you travel so that you're not hit with a hefty charge at check-in.

If you are driving to the arport check that there are no road works and leave a little extra time if travelling at busy times of the year.

If you are using public transport check for engineeing works - they often take place on bank holidays and at weekends.

Book you airport parking in advance; it can be much cheaper. As can getting currency in advance, exchange rates for foreign currency at the airport can often be poor.
