To some, an airplane is an adventure rarely taken.
To others, it's a necessary nightmare, a hassle you endure to reach your destination on a regular basis.
From physical discomforts on the flight, like sleeping while sitting, to dealing with jet lag afterward, there's a lot of hassle in flying.
Which is why Twitter user Taha Khan (@KhanStopMe) has shared how he handles flying.
These sound too specific to be made up. Keep a lip balm on you, I guess.
Honestly, you can ask for upgrades anywhere.
It's a great life hack.
The worst that can happen is they say no.
Anti-bacterial wipes are a good idea.
I don't agree with the orange juice. It's all sugar water to me so why not just stick to water?
But to each his own.
Good travel bags are a necessity.
If you look online, you can find bags specifically made to stay within carry-on dimensions.
And of course, you can't go wrong with putting a smile on your face.
Makes it a lot easier to deal with other people.
Khan's tips proved popular, being shared thousands of times.
However, not everyone agreed with his suggestions. Specifically, his idea to never check a bag and put all your clothes in your carry-on was disputed.
How do you keep 10 days of clothes in a carry-on? What if there's no laundry?
Still, it sparked a conversation and got people adding their own travel tips.
One study estimated that the average flyer will spend 300 hours in an airport and on a plane. Learning how to cut back on time wasted is a life hack we can finally use for once.
