Great tips stella as always! I also try to pack in a carry on only if my trip is short to avoid losing luggage or checking in, especially if I may end up late. I also like to pack valuable or must needed items in my carry on and not in my check in luggage in case its lost. After check in I like to buy my own food, snacks and a magazine or two to bring on the plane to make sure I eat well, airplaine food isn't the best at all, lol. ONe last one, I keep my I.D., boarding pass, money in an accessible part of my purse (usually a crossbody) so I can get to it and not lose it.

Stella you have an Amex Platinum you don’t need to pay for lounges that charge card comes with Delta Skyclub lounge access when flying Delta. Priority Pass and Centurion® Lounge with any airline and it also allows 2 guests at no charge. It’s like $30-50 for a day pass to lounges these days.

11. If you see a gate showing your destination, DON'T take it for granted that it is also your flight. Sometimes there may be three or four departures within half an hour, all by different companies. Check your boarding card to see what flightnumber goes with your ticket. If you are at the wrong gate, you might not hear your flight calling you for departure, and you will miss the flight. You will probably not be permitted to board through the gate you are waiting at. And you will be very angry. 11 b. And, as Debra Adams says in the comments, check your gate several times. Sometimes they will change the gates, without even calling it out.

You can eat at the airport. Just bring your own food. It's allowed to bring that true security, but remember to not bring any liquids including creams and jams (like those jars with jam and also peanut butter, etc.) or similar above 100ml. That is really good because you can eat it when you are hungry and don't need to bring food. This is especially handy if you have a long flight or long time in between flights.

Hi Stella! I am a gate agent for the same airline as you. I like your tips but just want to add Don’t be late (I agree with you). Passengers who get to the gate too late for their flight have to go STANDBY on the next flight to their destination (sometimes standby on connecting flights! 🥺 If they want to be confirmed, it does have a charge, but flights are usually full as you well know. Be aware that TSA lines can sometimes take hourS. It is much better to be inside security early and waiting a while than to be stressing about missing your flight. Please consider checking your carry-on bag at the gate for free when the offer is made. If you already have a paid-for bag checked, your carry-on will also go to baggage claim, but without more charges. Once we run out of overhead bin space, we have to check all rolling bags and large duffel bags. Period. This almost always means group 9. Gate agents love people who check their bags voluntarily. Do not stuff your carry-on too full. If it fails to EASILY fit into the sizer frame, it MUST be checked. I have seen multiple flights delayed due to BROKEN BINS where people tried to force their carry-on into the bin then tried to force the bin closed. Opt in for notifications on your phone about your flight. Our airline now texts passengers when BOARDING BEGINS!! Yes! And this one tip will save many people a lot of stress trying to find connecting gate info: on any smart phone’s browser, type in the airline code and the flight number to see the departure terminal and gate, arrival terminal and gate (up to the MINUTE!). This also gives you any delay information. Hope to see you coming thru CLT sometime! Safe travels! ✈️ Diane

Same. I had a long connection in Chicago to London and so I approached the gate and asked if there was space for me. I didn’t have any checked bags and they just let me in.

For some reason I just love airports. Just being in an airport or airplane is just so comforting for me. I honestly don't know why. Just all the cool tones and silver and blue just makes it feel so modern yet cozy.

I'd like to add a Part B to one of your tips when hanging out at your gate... throughout your wait check your gate. Often times, your gate will change and you'll miss your flight! Just because your gate was assigned when you arrived at the airport doesn't mean it can't/won't change.

I travel a lot for work and a lot of these tips are fairly obvious but setting an alarm for boarding is genius and I can't believe I hadn't thought of it. Stella, your personality is great and you seem like someone I would love as a friend let alone an awesome flight attendant!

Chloe best tips ever for flight attendants 😆

6:44 A note on boarding times: the time of your flight is the time the plane takes off into the air and departs the airport. That is the DEPARTURE time. On your boarding pass it will tell you that your flight will be boarding (for example) 30 minutes before the departure. So if your flight departs at 9:45pm then the boarding time is 9:15pm. The boarding time is the time used for the “boarding process” aka when people physically board the plane with their carry ons using their boarding passes at the gate. Please do not confuse boarding time with DEPARTURE time if you are planning to use her tip to set an alarm for BOARDING time. A lot of people I know who don’t fly often love to use tip #1 to the get to the airport super early but then they walk around, eat, or just lose track of time. All they think about is the departure time and forget completely about the boarding process. Then they have to run to their gate trying not to miss their flight before the plane doors close and the plane flies away without them. If you’re a first time flyer or someone who’s flying for the first time by yourself then please remember this. The time on your ticket is when the plane flies away. You have to remember to give yourself time to line up at the gate, board the plane, settle into your seat on the plane -All before the plane ever departs. Lastly, this is also important because before you board: the gate might change. You have to keep up to date with wherever they need you to go so give yourself time to accommodate any last minute changes.

Find your gate, then look for restaurants, gift shops, whatever. But KNOW where your gate is and that you are clear with security.

Great tips. Just one more, double check to be sure you have all your belongings when you leave security. You don't want to discover your left your laptop or phone on the checkpoint after getting to the gate. I worked at a large international airport for over fourteen years, and you would be amazed at what gets turned into lost and found.

Stella!!! Tip 7 is 💯💯💯. That’s exactly what I do too. The nearby gate is often empty and I can have a charging station all to myself😂Love all your tips💯

Love them!!!! I’m the same way. We actually park our car in one of the nearby hotels and get a shuttle to the airport. A lot cheaper than parking at the airport. And when we get home the hotel pick us up and We get ourselves home. So easy.

The lounge tip is a really great one. I used to think they were a luxury that I could easily do without. Now I'm hooked and can't fly without lounge access. It makes my trip that much more relaxing. And tip #11, get TSA Pre! While all the suckers are standing in the long security lines scrambling to take off their shoes and disrobe, you breeze on by in just a few seconds. Worth its weight in gold.

wao ...first time ever....this is great..setting an alarm...first time i hear that...this is awesome.

Stella is a queen!!! Thanks for the hacks girl, they are super helpful!!👏👸

We always fly when we go on vacation and to see family, etc. These were all very good tips. Nothing drives me crazier than getting behind someone who has never flown before in the security line. Or someone who is just not paying attention at all and then when it's there turn you have to wait 20 minutes for them to get there stuff together. I really liked your tip for carrying an empty water bottle. I had never thought to do that before and its a great tip! Thanks 😊

Thanks for the great tips....I will definitely be using them...

Oh wow!! A long layover of four or five hours in one of those fancy airport lounges sounds like nirvana!! It sounds so comfortable and luxurious.

I did most of these tips on my first time flying alone to NZ and arriving early, having an empty water bottle, and getting ready to go through security were the most helpful. Next time I have to try spending that little extra for a lounge because I had an 8 hour layover in SF and it was torture waiting that long with that many people out

Thank you for sharing this valuable information.

Lovely video ! Thank you very much.

I am pretty proud to say I do the first nine tips but I was hesitant to use the lounge. But after watching this great video I think I will give the lounge a try on my next long wait. Your the best Stella! Still waiting for a video on shoe recommendations from you to wear with uniforms :)

Join TSA Pre-check. It’s amazing. Especially if you travel with a laptop. Also, always pack a change of clothes and medication in your carry-on, in case your checked bag is delayed.

Great advice about nearby gates. I always do this. It doesn’t even need to be that close to my actual gate. I usually sit near the restaurant where I get food. I never understand why everyone packs into the actual departure gate. I also usually pay for food at the airport even though it is overpriced. I usually budget a lot of money to fly. I try to get my seat cheap and splurge at the airport. It gives me something to do because I’m usually early. I also like to get a beer at the airport if it isn’t too early in the day or sometimes early in the day lol. It relaxes me for the flight.

Thank you for the tips. As a frequent traveller, I agree with them all! Especially the lounges!

Hi from Sydney! Love the videos! Discovered you today! You are just full of sunshine! Love the tips!! Especially get there early. What a stress reliever that is! Best tip I have... be nice to the airline employees. Asking how their day has been at check in or on board always seems to make them smile. Also... global entry has saved me hours (probably days) of my life and I only fly 2 or 3 overseas trips a year. Especially flying into LAX. The lines can be crazy for immigration and customs if you arrive at the wrong time. And finally if ever flying from SYD to LAX AA72 is the perfect timing. Usually not crazy at either end at the airports and the service always brilliant!! Happy travels!!

For the curve side check in I have some tips. I used to work that for American. If you know you may have a problem with your reservation (documentation, fees, wrong name spelling, etc..) don't even think about check in there. You have to go to the ticket counter to get it fix. Also, if you are late for check in (45 minutes prior your departure) curve side people won't take your bags. Last thing, please please please, tip the curve side people, most of the time they're vendors employees, meaning that they don't work directly for the airline so they don't get pay the same. They are outside when is cold, hot, windy, snowing, etc, so please, don't forget to tip them.

It’s from the KZread free library “Beginnings” by Unicorn Heads 🦄

Thank you! Love your suggestions!

Pretty much already do everything else, but I really like the alarm thing n paying for the lounge idea. Enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing.

#1 and #10 go together nicely. If you don't travel frequently you don't need a lounge membership, so spring for the occasional one-time pass (vacation treat!). Since they are available in 3 hour slots (or more) before your departure, its even more incentive to arrive early to check-in. As some of the lounges have showers, an even better incentive to arrive early.

Thanks so much for the tips! I never even thought of bringing a water bottle

I have a collapsible one that's just for flying. They're not the easiest to find. It's more like a collabpsible flask, where the neck & opening are rigid and the body is a soft plastic. Mine has the body part then covered in a heavy fabric with a pattern on it so I know it's mine. This way, it doesn't take up much room when empty, and holds a decent amount of water.

Great tips Stella ... Love your videos

Such good tips! Thank you. :)

Sitting at a nearby gate is a great tip! 👍🏼

I've been a travel writer for 15 years, and you gave away one of my best secrets! (No 7 : ) )... Haha. I do it all the time, and it often baffles me why more people don't...

This was super helpful! Thank you 💃🏾

I'm planning on using these tips for my trip this summer.

New to your channel. Good tips. Especially about the day pass to the lounge 👍🏻

For your bottle, add some dry tea, coffee or drink powder. Just add water after security.

Thanks for the great tips Stella!!🤗😍❤

your energy is so good! thank you for these tips!

Who else is watching travel related videos for nostalgia and excitement for future travels after the corona crysis?

I’m leaving soon for a job and I’m flying by myself for the first time, I’ve always had friends or family with me on these flights so I’m super nervous I’m just ready to figure everything out

Thanks so much for sharing Stella. That last tip really especially helped me. Whenever taking a connect flight, I always wonder what to do. I will definitely look into the lounge option

Excellent tips. I usually do all, but may try the lounges now.

Wow these were amazing tips, especially bringing empty drinking bottles. But it's always odd how many people end up late at check in, even though it's common sense to arrive early.

Goes to airport 5 hours early--
