How To Board a Plane With Ease and Grace
/We’ve all been behind THAT PERSON…
She’s ahead of you in the boarding process. She finally gets to her seat, and then…. She spends several minutes unloading items from her carry-on bag and purse that she needs with her. Then she lifts her suitcase to the overhead bin, only to find that there isn’t a spot directly next to her seat and everyone has to back up so she can stow her bag.
Frustrating? Yes. Avoidable. Absolutely.
What can you do to NOT be that person? Try this – put all your
in-flight necessities, such as cell phone, charging cord, earbuds,
glasses, snack, and hand sanitizer in a resealable gallon-sized bag,
pop it in an easy-to-access spot in your carry-on bag, grab it quickly, toss it into your seat and stow your bag without delay.
