It is the season for long lines and frayed nerves. Here’s how to deal.
Lighten up
Do yourself a favor and ship your presents. Nearly every U.S. airline charges a fee to check a bag, so shipping gifts is now cheaper and more convenient than carrying them in your luggage.
Weigh your options
Now knowing what you’re going to pay for your luggage is annoying. So calculate your overweight-luggage fees at home. You can find the fees out in advance by visiting new site Luggage Limits, which provides the latest information on more than 90 airlines.
Leave amateurs in the dust
Trust us and get to the airport an extra half-hour early. The check-in and security lines are filled with inexperienced fliers, and it’s a hard walking. Plus, if you decide to cut it close, you may not get onto the flight at all. To reduce costs, airlines have reduced on flights and routes. The remaining flights are more likely to be oversold, especially on busy travel days. Fliers who check in early are the least likely to get bumped from oversold flights.
Take it public
The rates for renting a car at the airport have more than doubled over the past year because rental lot inventories (财产) have increased dramatically. True, renting at the airport is convenient, but it’s just not worth it anymore. Unless you really need a car, take public transportation, hop a cab, or beg a friend to pick you up at the airport instead.
Say no to bumper cars
Tell the people picking you up to avoid parking their car. They can hang out in their car for free while waiting to get a call from you when you land. Many airports, including JFK and LAX, now feature this sensible choice.
这是排长队和神经紧张的季节。以下是应对方法。
放松
帮自己一个忙,把礼物寄出去吧。几乎每家美国航空公司都要收取托运行李的费用,所以现在邮寄礼物比在行李中携带礼物更便宜、更方便。
权衡你的选择
现在知道你要为你的行李付多少钱是很烦人的。所以在家里计算一下你的超重行李费吧。你可以通过新网站“行李限额”提前了解费用,该网站提供了90多家航空公司的最新信息。
把业余爱好者甩在后面
相信我们,提前半小时到达机场。办理登机手续和安检的队伍里挤满了没有经验的乘客,这是一段艰难的旅程。另外,如果你决定把它剪短,你可能根本上不了飞机。为了降低成本,航空公司减少了航班和航线。剩下的航班更有可能超售,尤其是在旅行繁忙的日子。提前办理登机手续的乘客最不可能被超售航班挤掉。
将其公开
在机场租车的费用比去年增加了一倍以上,因为租赁库存(财产)大幅增加。的确,在机场租房很方便,但这已经不值得了。除非你真的需要一辆车,否则你可以乘坐公共交通工具,打车,或者让朋友去机场接你。
对碰碰车说不
告诉接你的人不要停车。他们可以免费在车里闲逛,等待你落地后的电话。包括肯尼迪国际机场和洛杉矶国际机场在内的许多机场现在都采用了这种明智的选择。
