Secrets for a Perfect Flight Experience During the Lunar New Year

- The first and most basic, yet crucial, step is to mentally prepare yourself for the possibility that your flight might be delayed, canceled, or rescheduled. Getting upset will only increase your stress. Instead, maintain a calm attitude and stay level-headed to handle the situation effectively.

- If you have an important commitment, it’s best to book your flight 3 to 4 hours earlier than needed and opt for a morning flight. This time of day typically sees fewer delays. Additionally, flying in the morning helps you stay more alert compared to other times of the day.

- If you're close to your flight time and find yourself waiting in long lines, don’t hesitate to ask the airline staff for assistance and request priority boarding.

- Use online check-in services or arrive early to check in at the Kiosk Check-in stations at major airports. This will save you a lot of time by avoiding long lines at check-in counters, especially during the busy Tết season.

- During Tết, it’s advisable to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours prior to your flight's departure time.

- Pay attention to your luggage when traveling by plane. Before you leave, organize your items carefully and weigh your baggage to ensure it’s not overweight. Make sure you’re not carrying any prohibited items, as security will ask you to open your bag for inspection, wasting valuable time. If your luggage is overweight, consider removing a few unimportant items rather than paying extra fees for excess baggage.

- Choose luggage that suits your needs. The suitcase should be of good quality, equipped with a secure lock, and meet the airline’s size regulations. Don’t forget to attach a luggage tag with your contact details in case your bag gets lost.

- If your luggage gets lost, try not to panic. Wait for the rest of the bags to be unloaded, then proceed to the 'Lost and Found' counter and follow the instructions provided.

- In your carry-on luggage, it’s a good idea to pack some personal items and extra clothes, so if your flight gets delayed, you’ll have everything you need.

- You can check the airport bus routes in advance to see if they pass by your destination. If you're taking an airport taxi, keep the information card or make a note of the taxi company and vehicle number in case you encounter any issues, such as forgetting your luggage or phone in the vehicle. You can also use ride-hailing apps like GrabTaxi or Uber for convenience.

Here are some tips to ensure you have a smooth and comfortable flight experience during Tết, especially to avoid ever missing your flight.
