How to Choose a Seat
When you book a flight, you'll be asked to choose a seat. If you don't have the option to choose a seat, or if all the seats are taken, don't worry - the airline will assign you a seat. However, if you do have the option to choose your own seat, take a minute to review your options.
There are a few things to consider when choosing your seat on the plane:
1. Location: do you want to sit by the window so you can look out during takeoff and landing? Or do you prefer an aisle seat so you can stretch your legs more?
2. Legroom: some seats have more legroom than others, especially in economy class. If you're tall or have long legs, it may be worth paying for extra legroom or choosing a seat near the exit.
3. Comfort: Some people find reclining seats more comfortable for sleeping, while others prefer upright seats. Consider how important comfort is to you when making your choice.
4. Budget: in some cases, you may pay for a better seat with more legroom or a better location. If budget is a factor, weigh the cost of the upgrade against the value of a more comfortable flight.
How to Stay Comfortable
When packing for your flight, be sure to bring a few items that will make your trip more comfortable. A neck pillow and eye mask can help you rest, while a scarf or shawl can serve as a blanket if you get cold. It's also worth bringing some snacks and drinks to keep you nourished during your trip. And if you really want to be comfortable, you should choose a premium seat or buy a travel pillow that specifically supports your back or neck.
How to Entertain Yourself
