Luggage tags

I always have problems with the carousel and knowing which is my bag, and so any ideas that could personalise my baggage would be an advantage.

This does sound a good idea, but as Jenny points out, I am not sure it will catch on over here, but I wish it would. The meagre allowance means you just cannot take all the lovely clothes you have acquired for your holiday and it really restricts you, the airlines must make a fortune out of this and our desire to take more with us.

DVT from flying
charlotteking's comment 12 August 2010, 10:59AM

This is all very enlightening information, I was not really aware of DVT and its consequences, especially as I have recently had surgery, no-one mentioned to me in hospital that I should be careful flying before six weeks, so this really is good to know, I think this advice needs to be more widely available.

Who would be a Flight Attendant?

I would hate to be a Flight Attendant, I think they have to put up with so much, ok, they get to travel but is it really worth all the stress of dealing with the general public, I think they do a fantastic job.

Stuff your pockets and stuff security

Everyone is right above with all their comments, it is tedious enough waiting in long queues trying to get through without waiting for someone to unload everything from their person, it is getting ridiculous to say the least.

Airport parking - on-site or off-site?
charlotteking's comment 16 August 2010, 10:46AM

This is a much cheaper option I have found, if you have a last minute deal, and you go on one of these websites you can often get a great deal with your parking, it is well worth a look.

Charges - a matter of perception?

Trying to remember for security requirements what you are and not allowed to take through is difficult in itself, charging for the bags is just an insult.
