Flying alone. (1 Viewer)

[Fortify]

I'll be flying alone for the first time on Friday evening. Kinda Nervous. Any tips ?

 

[milocole]

Is it just a short leg like Sydney-Melbourne? Or are we talking a overseas trip?

I have flown probaly 70 flights by myself as a passenger in a commercial aircraft, nothing to worry about, unless you are flying Garuda.

Is someone picking you up on the other side? If so, your journey should be swift and easy.

Why are you nervous at your age, lol?

haha, i'd be nervous because ive never done it before.

also, where are u going?

 

[Fortify]

I'll be going overseas to Hong Kong, so probably 10 hour-ish flight. I'll get picked up by my relatives. Hopefully, it'd be a safe, easy, quick trip.

if there's no stop-overs then it'll be fine.

even if there was a stopover, it'd still be fine lol.

[ehtefaz.hedayet]

honestly i would be very excited to do this

I went overseas alone (was meeting my parents in a ski resort) in Jan and both connections screwed up significantly; I ended up being stranded by myself for about 3 days in various Asian/North American airports and hotels without being able to contact my parents except eventually via email.

It's only one flight from here to HK, and you know people at both ends. Short of an emergency landing in some random country what could possible go wrong?

Nothing to be nervous about. Enjoy travel, look forward to new experiences and see something new.

Just be prepared, arrive early and dont miss the flight.

Whenever I fly, I always carry my travel bag. Inside is my wallet, passport and ticket. Camera, Ipod and Nintendo DS. Usually too excited exploring to play the NDS.

Good Luck and have Fun. Let us know how you got on !!

In carry-on luggage would I be allowed to have a handbag with a chain strap? It would be inside my bigger bag. Sister doesn't think it would be allowed

It's easy.

Listen to the P.A. announcements, read the flight details... The usual. It's hard to get confused in an airport.

 

[philphie]

just pay attention to any announcements about your flight and fill out your forms correctly, not much else you can do or be worried about. oh and always go to the lavatory first before boarding.

no poblem with that, as long as it's small enough to fit in the overhead compartment then you're fine

I am sure by now you must have gone through the experience of flying alone. Doing things on your own for first time are a bit scary, what if you make some blunder.. etc.

In my life I haven't travelled alone yet but this is something which I'd like to attempt.

man air crash investigation has made me paranoid

 

[theism]

always have your luggage with you (untill you check it in),

have insurance as well

It's funny how only the people who are paranoid about flying to begin with watch that show. It's never the people that believe: "Oh, it's never gonna happen to me".
