8 hr layover with young kids at Doha airport. Need help with recommendations. I was going to book oryx lounge but reviews are not great. They seem to overbook and it is always crowded, especially over the weekend. And I don’t think we have enough time to go to and from a hotel outside of airport. Hotel inside the airport does not have rooms for a family of 4, and two rooms gets a bit expensive for us. Need suggestions or …

Flight from Florence, Italy Airport Hey guys I have a flight in a few days from Florence into Frankfurt. my flight leaves at 6:40AM but I’ve heard security doesn’t open until 4:00AM.

Also i…

Do I need a visa to enter Iraq proper via Erbil Airport? If I wanted to enter Federal Iraq via Erbil Airport, would I need a 2nd visa to enter Iraq proper? I’m hearing conflicting information from some friends saying the Kurdish visa is enough for me to travel over the kurdish border south. If the 2nd visa situation is true, how is Baghdad international airport in general? Sketchy? How much does it c…

Interesting or unique airport offerings: lobsters, wine flies for free, etc. I just stumbled upon this story in WaPo explaining that you can buy live lobsters (sorry, lobstahs) at PMW and put them in your carry-ons or dedicated boxes. I also occasionally fly from Sonoma County Airport (STS), and Alaska Airlines allows you to check in a properly packaged case of wine for free – this applies to a bunch of other West Coast …

My luggage, which was supposed to arrive in FCO airport in Rome, is now in Bologna Airport (according to AirTag and Galaxy SmartTag), but I am already in Brazil. Air Serbia says it has not located it yet. My itinerary was SPU > BEG and BEG > BLQ with Air Serbia. The first flight got delayed, so I lost the second one (which were purchased as the same itinerary SPU > BLQ). At BEQ, Air Serbia told us there were no flights to BLQ at the same day, which for me didn’t work because I had a returning flight BLQ > FCO and FCO > GRU with Ita in the next da…

LPT take a sling that can convert between cross body and waist worn to the airport When you are heading to the airport put everything from your pockets into a sling that can be worn cross body and on your waist like a fanny pack. While in the security line, convert from waist worn to cross body. As you go through security just drop it in the basket with your carry on, then grab and go at the end where people are rushing to get…

Sending domestic mail to myself from Heathrow airport? I’m flying into Heathrow Terminal 4 at 6am and flying out to Belfast Terminal 5 at 5pm same day. My flight going to Heathrow allows me check in up to 30kg but my flight to Belfast only allows for 23kg. As these are different bookings, I’ll need to check my luggage in again. At first I thought I’d just pack for 23kg which wastes the first extra 7…

Flight delayed by 3H- show up to airport at the same time? Just got an email that my flight departing from LGA (NYC) at 9am has been delayed 3 hours to a “delay with the inbound aircraft” . I see people being advised on here to ensure that you’re there for the original departure time. Is this correct? It seems a little crazy to get there 3 hours early. Would this just be exercising a very high level of …

LPT If the ride share prices surge when you’re at an airport or you can’t find a ride, take a free airport shuttle to a hotel in your general direction and order a ride there. The big hotel chains usually have a free shuttle. Plus you can use a nice clean bathroom and order food from the cafe. This saved me over $50 when there was a storm at LAX a while back. I tip the driver Edit: A good point in the comments was about how the base fare is also less by not having the airport access fee which is common in large citi…
