The Plane - Tip #2 Don't Arrive Late

Ok, I'm going to make this easy.

Tip #2 - Arrive earlier than planned

I'm sure my father will be thrilled with this post. A man that always arrives 3 hours early to assure that he will make his flight, just in case there's traffic, or long lines or something else that I can't even think of. And as someone who travelled with him often, I'll tell you that the previous post was tough because boy, I had to not only keep myself occupied for the 3 hours prior to the flight, but then I had to figure out what I was going to do up in the air.

As silly as this seems, and as boring as it is to sit in an airport, you will be much better off than running through the terminal knocking people down and looking like a moron. So even though 3 hours may be a bit much, shoot for 2. The heart attack waiting in the wings, will have to wait just a bit longer. So sit in the nearest bar and enjoy watching all the other people running to catch their flights.
