Crowding the gate when boarding a flight Why do people do this? Especially if you’re still a couple groups away from being called. I fly economy all the time and just sit and wait until it’s my turn to board. It’s also annoying having to squeeze through people when it’s your turn to board. It just doesn’t make sense to me. submitted by /u/Agreeable_Peak_7851

I have a ~11-hour flight, but the flight doesn’t provide any meals…. What can I do besides buy food at the airport? It’s an overnight flight (9PM GMT-5 – 2PM GMT+2) with a 1.5 hour stopover at Lisbon, so maybe that’s why there are no meals provided. TSA says solid food items can be transported, so can I bring a homemade sandwich to eat at the airport before boarding my plane? I’ll also bring my reusable water bottle (empty). It’s my first time flying solo, le…

What are the benefits of checking in online for a flight? I can’t see any benefits of checking in online for a flight online if I also have baggage to check in.

I hadn’t checked in and avoided the large line of people and went straight to the ch…

Ryanair changed my flight and none of the options they offered me were good. Is there something I can do? I had a flight booked from Dublin to Sofia departing on the 9th of December (a Saturday) with the return on the 11th of December (a Monday). They changed it to the 8th of December (a Friday) to the 10th of December (a Sunday). It’s not a huge change, but to me it kind of is as I can’t take Fridays off of work as it’s a big day. I contacted their…

How many hours before your flight do you arrive at the airport for international flights and at which airport? I noticed that the 3 hours recommendation for arriving at an airport for an international flight can be an overkill on some airports and just right for others. What’s your experience on this? submitted by /u/Electronic_Karma

Connecting flight issue Flying to Jamaica next year, London Gatwick to Kingston. Have to make my way from Glasgow to London first, and the flights have just been released. We booked via a travel agent and they’re saying it’s Sandals fault for the hassle, but surely it’s them that are responsible. They’ve told us we have to fly GLA > LHR to then get a bus to LGW. They’r…

What’s your favourite time to take a short flight? What’s everyone’s favourite time to take a short-haul flight? This can also extend to any mode of transport that takes less than 3 hours (e.g. train). Each time of the day seems to have its pros and cons. Morning means less delays and you have the whole day in your new destination. But it means you can’t sleep in and get the most of your acco…
