Who else binge watching these kind of videos ✈️💗 before the flight
Alya 129 meeee
Me 200
All the time. I'm preparing for my second trip abroad and it'll be a long haul flight... Videos such as these help make me less nervous.
Flight: 1 year away
Me: watches flight tips just because I can
Erin Moore me too!! 😂
Same here ☺
Same
My flight is next year but it is December and we are going in February so it in less than 3 months
Erin Moore mines in 4 days! Im so scared Ive never been on a plane before
#3 "don't go all dressed up" I felt that in my soul. Growing up my mom would ALWAYS make me be all nice and dressed up for our 8 HOUR flight to Europe. I would be sooo uncomfortable most of the trip.
You can dress comfortably and still not dress like a bum.
As an experienced traveler the ideal plane outfit would be joggers leggings or sweatpants and gym shoes or converse van type shoes and a comfy t shirt and a zip up sweatshirt
"experienced traveler" lol jk
People dress up for flights because back in the day it was seen as a classy thing to do. Not everyone traveled like now with the lowcost explosion.
Luciano Classical Guitar also, you are treated like cattle now, tiny seats unless you travel first or business, inedible food, dirty airports...
admenocal not true I live in Portland Oregon has one of the best airports around and our airport is not dirty ty very much...
Back in the day if you dressed up you were treated like royalty.
You can tell how much more classless people are in airports these days. Not judging they are blatant.
My usual flight time ends up being 23 hours and in my flight people literally comes in sleepwear which is very very practical
When she said be at the airport like at 3:15 when ur flight is at 4 in England they say always be there 2 hrs before!
Martika Turner true!
Martika Turner in Canada its 3 hours ahead of time
Julia Leszczynski nice?
Lindsay meant that if you need to be at the airport by 4 for check-n--say, for a 6 p.m. or 6:30 p.m. flight--get there at 3:15 instead. She did not mean get to the airport at 3:15 p.m for a 4 p.m. flight.
Martika Turner whenever I travel we get to the airport 2 hours before it’s normal
I always try and think of going to the airport as the start of my holiday, so making sure I have plenty of time to get there, even if it means being early, just gets me into the holiday mindset. I can take my time getting through security and start to relax, without having to rush and panic that i'm going to miss the plane!
Great thinking. Thank you for the positiv mindset
who else watches these videos before going on a flight....no just me....ok
edit: omg thanks for the likes😊
Guccibear. Val me
Barbie Girl i’m leaving tomorrow and i started watching these exactly 4 weeks ago aka 1 month ago
Guccibear. Val omg have a great time! i’m going april 30th!
Barbie Girl thanks! you too have a good flight and fun time!!
Meee
The other thing people need to keep in mind when you're wearing clothes on a flight is that yes there are 200 300 people on your flight and if you're on an international flight there can be upwards to 600 people everyone has control over their own air flow. If 300 people on an airplane all turn their AC valve above their head on and the plane is going to hundred miles an hour your plane is going to feel like an igloo in about 10 minutes. It's the exact same concept when your car cools off faster because you're driving faster...
Point three (do not wear tank top and/or shorts) could be right in most cases but you will never know the temperature. When I flew from Thailand to Hong Kong with Air Asia, the plane barely had AC and everyone suffered in heat. I was glad that I wore a tank top. My tips to this point is that wear layers for your upper body!
it is recommended if people wore baggy, comfy, loose clothes so they dont have a risk of a blood clot or loose circulation. also wear closed toed, slip on shoes.

Cat23199 M ?
BACCA AND BANGTAN TRASH sorry I don’t know how that got there lol didn’t mean to comment
I qas gonna wear leggings snd a sweatshirt..
A good time for flying, if you bring a bag of anything, either make a small hole or open the bag before you take off. My last flight to another state, while we were still rising, I had a bag of chips at my feet and the bag slowly inflated! I was panicking because I didn't it to make a large popping sound, because we know that any sorta loud noise is not only frown upon, but also incredibly risky when it comes to security. That bag of chips could have easily ruined my entire flight home.
Oh, gosh. Load noises on planes, never a good thing lol. Great tip Zach, thanks!
Thank you so much.. I’m so basic and I’m going to Japan next month .. thank you for your positive & uplifting info..
Finally a great, fast video with new, not obvious info! Thank you!
I do so agree w her on what to wear on the flight, layering is smart.you never know if you'll end up really cold or too warm which I doubt that'll happen on getting too warm.
GREAT VIDEO!!! Best travel tips vid IVE EVER WATCHED!!
One time me and my dad were traveling and the line for security was insane! Not only that but my dad had 1 checked bag and the people in front of us had like 7 members to their party and like ALL of their bags got checked and so we had wait an insanely amount of time. Luckily we got there 2 hours early and we only had about 15 spare minutes. Let that be a lesson to you all. ALWAYS GET THERE 2 HOURS EARLY
Very informative & straightforward info.Thank you.
So glad I came across your channel! Thank you for these tips!
Wow! Travel goals! Thanks for the vid!
I love listening to you about anything! Great tips! I just got my KTN from TSA !
Good tips and I appreciate that you are prepared when filming your videos. No going off topic and to the point.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful video content I really like it
Thank you for this video, it was really informative !
And yes, I would love to see a blog/life update type of video, but actually I'd watch every video you do so 😂
I'll be flying a good bit this summer and these tips are a lifesaver!! Thank you
We dress up just in case we get upgraded
Or sit next a cute person 😂😂😂
Then CHANGE if you get UPGRADED 🙄😑
@@ivrit7016 They say you have more chances of getting upgraded if you are dressed up.
Zzmora if it was me I would be in sweats 😂
Zzmora that isn’t the case anymore. I fly weekly for work on different airlines. Upgrades are based on your flying frequency and not how you are dressed like it was years ago.
Thank you for the amazing tips!! And yes I'm interested in life update videos from you :)
That is so true. thanks for info.I subscribed!
girl, being delayed for 4 hours is NOTHING.. i was delayed almost 14 hours from Houston to NYC
Taylin Verenini what do you do in that time? 😩
Taylin Verenini Pleass, I got delayed 21 hours. I literally just stayed at the airport the whole time.
I always only take carry on as it's quicker, easier and makes me feel more at ease knowing my luggage is above me. I'm a new subscriber ❤️
Flying to Canada this Tuesday... thanks for all the tips!
I've watched a lot of videos on how to fly and Know one else mentions the TSA Fly..quick line but YOU! Thank you!
Thanks so much we’re going to Japan in July 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Your videos are always so helpful!
Thanks so much, Maria!
Thanks for great tips for flights. I'm new to your videos, and have now subscribed. 😊
Hi Lindsey I started following you a few weeks ago and your videos really inspire me! Thanks!
Thank you so much, Melissa! Appreciate the kind words and happy travels! :)
If you travel to Europe keep control of when you are entering the Shengen area and make sure you pass passportcheck as soon as you land to be on the correct side for your connecting flight, the ques are likely to be looong, the same when you are leaving Europe when it´s likely that the "outside" has less service, make sure to exit directly.
I'm so glad I had not already bought a TSA precheck, I kept wanting to get it and made multiple interviews to get it but always ended up canceling because things coming up.
I had researched just now about Global Entry and learned that it also includes tsa pre, glad I ended up waiting. 😂 thank you for your video!
Thus video was sooo helpful for me thank you so muchh
Thanks so much for this
Great stuff! Very interesting about the TSA Pre and Global entry.
Oh and yes to life updates :D I'm keen to hear it all!
Yay! Thanks Angeliki!
Thankyou for the video!❤️ I love to travel but HATE flying
Wow thanks for sharing
Missed you!!! 💚💚💚🌿 more videos & yes to vlogs 👌🏾
Yeaah! Thank you! Hopefully uploading the first vlog today. It's... weird. lol :)
im down for anything youd upload 💖
Hey, you're actually sitting in this video lol!
Great tips indeed. I'll have to look more into Pre-TSA as I never knew about that before. Thanks! One (probably obvious) tip that I experience to never do again is to NOT eat a big meal before flying. Most likely I'll end up seeing it again (-_-).
I agree, would love to see a separate series of videos of just updates/vlogs. You tend to give a real quick update at the end of these types of videos, but it's just not enough. I absolutely love your travel videos, but it'll be a nice change to see other side of you just talking about things other than travel. :-D
thumbs up if airport if the best part of the holiday haha! i love it!!! a few cheeky cocktails and duty free shopping at 4am haha!!
Awesome! Subscribed ✅
thanks so much! This reminds me how close my flight from Melbourne to Peth! (yes I'm Aussie)
so informative, must check out the TSA.
Great tips especially about the TSA Pre :)
These videos are tremendously helpful, but I think we'd enjoy hearing you talk off-the-cuff too. 🌎
KT1419 I'd love to hear her thoughts on geocentricity.
Thank you !
Can you make a video on traveling when you're not balling aka when you're broke. Sounds funny. But I'm so serious.
iamkellij While you wait for Lindsay to make a video about this subject, I thought I would contribute some information.
If you haven't already, go to Google Flights and explore flights leaving a major city near you under the "explore" tab on Google flights. It will list some really cheap flights to random locations you probably haven't thought about. Which will give you a cheap starting point to get over the Atlantic or Pacific Ocean at least (if you're in the USA). And from that location you can make further plans to build on the trip making it inexpensive.
There are many round trip international tickets for well under $500.00, like on Norweigan and WOW airlines for example. Some are even $350 RT.
Sometimes, you have to go out of your way literally to find a great bargain and travel cheap.
Good luck.
Thanks so much Global and making this right now Kelli J! Hopefully will have it out tonight or tomorrow at the latest
Thank you girl. Traveling is my dream.
@@iamkellij travelling on a budget is easy just reasearch google flights watch tips vids and travel hacks...last minute booking is cheaper...depending on if u are fussy hostels and back packing hostels are cheap but can b noisey rowdy and some are room share..one cheap way to travel look into doing house sitting world wede some families do things similar to student exchange where you stay with families if your serious i will send you house sitter links
Great video! I disagree about no shorts, probably just me. All of my flights have been really warm, never cold. Also, my main airport is DIA so it would be expected to be cold
Loved this! :) I've also made quite a few travel tips videos, but it's always inspiring to see other people's perspective!
I would love to see more life update/vlog style videos from you! :D
Thanks so much Nour! Working on some now :)
In about two weeks im going from brisbane australia to dubai to venice which all together is about 23 hours and this helped so much
I have been looking at videos like these all day because I am going on a flight with no experience and no idea what I’m doing... great
In June, I have a 7 hour flight followed by a 14 hour flight 😅
Going from Heathrow to Doha to Sydney
I'm going from Auckland to Doha (17hrs 40mins) followed by a 7hrs 30mins flight to Manchester🙄🙄🙄
thanks I will use then when I go to Poland and I've been in the since I was around 6 months old
Story time vids from you would be amazing! Since you've traveled so much I bet you have a lot to talk about and say! Awesome energy and vids as always!
This is a fun idea! Thanks so much Alisha
If you have a stomach ache ask the crew for lemonade or Sprite and sip it slowly. It helps
When I was landing in Singapore with Singapore Airlines, we were circling for 30mins and the flight attendant came over saw me and my brothers rate and gave us sprite and We felt so much better. I’m always getting sprite now when I feel sick
Great video and tips. A vlog would be nice.
thanks!! tomorrow i have a flight from paris to seattle
I love watching these vids i have never traveled international so whats it like
Yeah, we'd like the video.
You say not to use the seat back pockets so you don’t forget something. I’ll give you a better reason not to use them. Studies have shown they are almost as dirty as the toilet seat in the lavatory. Basically, it’s a contaminated Petrie dish, and so is the table. Take Clorox wipes and clean the table, and don’t use the seat back pocket at all. Also, as a frequent international traveler, getting Gloval Entry is THE BEST thing I ever did!
I throw everything I need into a large drawstring bag or plastic bag and use it to contain my stuff in the seat pockets, so I don't actually reach into the seat pockets themselves. I either throw away the plastic bag or wipe down the drawstring bag with alcohol wipes after that. That bag is only used for seat pockets hahaha.
Gloval entry?
nice video
this appreciate me 👍👍
Still killin' it Lindsay!! I would love more vloggy/personal stuff. even if it's random and really has no point. I would looooove to see the life update/vlogs. Just make them rough and dirty, I'd love to see you anywhere just letting us know what's happening!
Thanks Rook :) Coming up!
Lindsay Mc yaaaaaaaaaaaaaas I'm soooo excited! Do it do it do it do it do it!!!!
Aka I Rook I

My fav snack to bring on the plane is freeze dried snake bags from thrive there super good in small separate bags that fit nice in a backpack also they last a really really long time like 20 something years so if you pack more of them for your flight back home and me as a 13 year old that didn’t think fruit and carrots would be good they were amazing and you can get yogurt bites and ask for water and make yogurt fast and there is granola witch I just eat out of the bag but it is good on the yogurt to it’s a nice easy way to take healthy food on a plane and it is one of my essentials
you should 100% check out the Bugaboo Boxer, it is the best suitcase on the market and by the sound of it, you will love all the organization solutions it offers!!!
OMG. When you mentioned not wearing shorts/dresses/skirts, I laughed out loud 🤣😂 That is my mantra! Planes can be super dirty. I don’t want my skin exposed to those germs!
Bring some good EARPLUGS if you don't use noise canceling ear buds! Trust me on this one😯
Great tip! Especially if you're not a super heavy sleeper :)
Oh God especially since I really snore you won't want to hear me bring good earplugs!
@@mzm4574 you go girl!
I like dried fruits like apples and strawberries because you can snack on them, they don’t get stale and they are pretty healthy!
I agreed with most of the video, except the part about not wearing skirts or dresses on planes. I have a lot of dresses and skirts that are really comfy and are often my go-to choice, when I want to be comfy and look nice at the same time. That said, I most of them are at least knee length, and if they aren't, I wear them with leggings to keep my legs from freezing.
Been flying since I was 6 months... Every year lol. However, 300+ flights later, ADHD and the ever changing rules and ahem, aging, it always is great to watch these videos before flying.
And omg! Yes! Dressing up... Shorts? If i feel dressy? Haha, i wear larer than usual jeans, and a niceer sweater or sweatshirt.
Note:about sodium. I actually need to increase mine or take a medication that increases my sodium (POTS. it also involves compression stockings and abdominal binders XD)
Yes yes yes, felt like ages since you last uploaded, this was so informative Lindsay loved it!
Thanks Chris! Next one comin tonight (or tomorrow at the latest) :)
Good!!!
I like this video as I’m gonna be traveling in nine days and my flight is around 6ish in the morning any tips for an early flight
Love from India!
Hey Lindsay! My name is Lynsey too! Lol 😂 I think these tips are soooooo helpful! Thanks! 😊😀👍
Informative video if u fly in the us but irrelevant worldwide. Though good tips re alcohol and soft drinks on long haul flights.
I remember leaving some expensive duty free skin care products on Etihad when flying from Japan to Dublin, but I managed to get it back when I rang the Dublin airport the next they. They kept it and even posted it to my house for me!
Global entry is the BEST!!!
Tsa pre is the same as priority in the uk btw
I’m going to India in a month, and I always watch these vids as soon as I find out I’m going lolllll
When you're in a flight, the air in the cabin can be really dry. That's why it's not recommended to drink soda or alcohol because these beverages will dehydrate you quicker than other beverages.
I also prefer to pack dry snacks like biscuits or cookies because I think some airports don't allow fresh fruits into the flight.
I've never heard about Global Entry before this so I guess this is for the U.S. only?
And finally... yes to carry on!
MyLifeAsLouis They use hospital great filter systems so the air is cleaner than the seat you’re sitting on moron
Video sucks
Yup. Only long-haul planes I drink on (and only if it's to relax my nerves against a crying baby--damn traveling families unless they're immigrating) are the A350 and 787 (and eventually 777X). The reasons being they are way higher pressure (7000ft instead of 10000) and higher cabin humidity (I think it's almost 55%).
I usually opt for pop only because they usually serve dasani bottled water which i really cant stand the taste of.
hi dear such an amazing video and precious voice thanks it help I am trying to get visa for Paris.hope meet you someday. keep it up dear you rock
My brother and I have a list of movies that are on flights and we always keep it with us so if we are bored, just watch one of those
YES for 10! I’m submitting for Global Entry because customs almost made me miss a flight.
here's another tip; when traveling with elderly relatives or friends, make sure to request wheel chair access. You get pushed through the front of the security checkpoint quickly, and you get to actually get a break from carrying their stuff.
I noticed this last time i was at the airport. I (jokingly) texted a few friends this pro tip. 😂
U no longer get to cut the line at security in the uk.
HOW HAVE I ONLY JUST COME ACROSS YOUR CHANNEL?!?!?!
NEW SUBSCRIBER
Normally I always argue against soda but I do have to point out that if you get motion sickness and forget Dramamine then drinking a clear soda (something like sprite) can help settle your stomach. You don’t need a lot! Just sip on one of those little cups they give you alongside a glass of water to stay hydrated
Thanks some of these helped me , I’m going to Tenerife in 5 weeks, 2018 anyone?
Valerian root is also good for sleep. I learned about it after learning i cant take melatonin without getting migraines the following morning.
Valerian is the herbal form of Valium. I believe Valium's origins were from Valerian. The cool thing with Valerian is that it is usually safer with far less side effects than Valium has, most notably the lack of "Valium hangover" the next day. You can either take it by capsule/pill or in delicious tea forms available in almost any grocery store and certainly at tea or health food stores.
I’m going to Cyprus for 11 nights. Yeah carry on only sounds good.
Any advice on how to make sure you don't miss international flight connections? This is the only thing that has ever REALLY stressed me out about traveling
Don't book flights with too tight of a layover and be sure that you book your two flights from the same airline (like one big flight) because if you miss your connection, they will just rebook you at no cost.
also book seats closer to the front of the aircraft. might have to pay more BUT if your in the back of the bus on a large aircraft......that ten minutes extra to disenbark could mean the difference.
Download the app of which ever major airport you are arriving/departing from...then before you go on the flight make sure you know exactly which terminal you come out of and which you arrive at. This + the app will help you map out exactly where you need to go once you land, making it one efficient journey from terminal x to terminal y. The worst thing you could do is come unprepared and get yourself lost.
Most carriers and booking sites will cover the layover, but if you’re still worried just purchase travel insurance (which will cover many other things as well. Just read the fine print).
Frequent international traveler here. Try to leave at LEAST two hours between flights. 3 hours is even better. It’s better to have to sit in the airport for a little while than have to run to catch your connection.
The Wandering Wife yep...good advice. I’ve seen flights where there is only 45 min in between flights... that would give me severe anxiety. Ideally I like to have 3 hours in between flights
I wear sweats as well i get super cold on airplane/airport. I normal bring my headphones ipad so i can watch my Netflix movies finally got how to download some lol word search next trip out to New Jersey i am going bring a book and magazine i normally take a nap i end up being late where i go down shore switch 2 hour ride from airport so basically sit for 6 hours :(
For sleep aids!!! If you get restless legs from Tylenol PM (or similar), like me, it's because the sleep aid is Diphenhydramine. Also, IF melatonin doesn't do jack diddly squat for you (like me as well)...I HIGHLY recommend getting a sleep aid with Doxylamine!!! I learned about the differences between the two when I was pregnant. Unisom Sleep Tabs are the most common sleep aid with Doxylamine, but places like Walgreens have a generic version. Start with 1/2 a tablet to see how it effects you.
It might help to distinguish between "smaller carry-on" and larger carry-on by referring to the "smaller carry-on" as the "personal item". Airlines permit one personal item (handbag, tote, backpack, etc.) and one carry-on, e.g. luggage.
