    Totally agree with leather shoes. Staff will at least pay attention and give you a hearing. My only disagreement is about helping anyone with luggage in and out of the overhead. I will let women and elderly go first, answer questions, pull big bags off the carousel, etc. I will not be an enabler for more carry on luggage. If you cannot put it in the overhead, check it! Once I retired, I always check my luggage and have a small bag that fits under the seat. I never use overhead space. The process works fine. If you want to carry on a big rolling bag, whether you are Emma Roberts or Chris Hemsworth, Vaya con Dios. You are on your own. FYI, note that flight attendants never assist anyone with a bag. They either point to an empty space in the overhead or point to the front where you can check your bag.

    Absolutely, a dark blue blazer, pinpoint oxford button down shirt (white or blue)/ fine gauge polo in a bright color, light/dark grey or sand pants (dress chinos pressed) and loafers / driving mocs are my traveling uniform even for business. I have regularly received enhanced customer service at airports. Recently I was traveling internationally in the above wardrobe with the addition of sunglasses which I had to wear due to a recent eye exam. I am a frequent air traveler (business class). From check-in to boarding I was treated like royalty. My seating was upgraded to first without using my points. I will make one additional suggestion wear a good quality cologne. My nieces bought me a bottle of a very expensive men's cologne for my birthday. I wanted to reserve wearing it for special occasions but since this was a very important business flight I chose to wear it. While checking in at my gate a two attractive women were right beside me and I asked the gate attendant to let them check in first. One commented to the gate attendant; "if gentlemen like that fly your airline "ll become a frequent flier." After boarding one of the flight attendants approached me and said "Pardon me sir may I ask you a personal question?" With a cautious quizzical look I nodded. The flight attendant continued; "May I ask what is the cologne you are wearing". My first thought was my fragrance was causing an allergic reaction so my reply was "Is there a problem?," The flight attendant smiled and said "No, but several other passengers have mentioned how clean and fresh the cabin smells and want to know what we use."

    Thank you for your video series. I am 54 now. When I was in my early 20s I aimed to be a Gentleman. Over the years I have let the outer standards slip. (But not the inner attitudes of the Gentleman. I still have those, and in a more mature form.) These videos are a wake up call to smarten up and re-invigorate the externals of being a Gentleman as I slip into my silver fox years.

So many people nowadays - including myself sometimes - get carried away with the polarisation online or in an inflamed environment situation, but I see some men who don't seem to get involved or remain calm regardless of the influence that surrounds them which is really impressive. I'm curious to know how they remain grounded. Love your channel ❤ ❤

    I always wear a sports jacket or suit when travelling. Like you, I find the pockets invaluable. And if you are on business and thus need a suit, it will wear better on you than jammed into a suitcase. While waiting in line at security, I fill the jacket pockets with my watch, coins and any other metallic accessories, then lay my jacket in the bin while going through the metal detector. And yes, I believe it helps to be dressed decently when dealing with any airport problems and when checking into your hotel. The only downside is all the porters and taxi vultures who flock around, thinking you are a plump mark. But I just brush by them and go my own way, so it's not a big deal. For examples of how to travel light and with style, watch George Clooney in "Up in the Air" and William Hurt in "The Accidental Tourist".

    Safe travels! Getting there early is sage advice, the last thing you want to be is rushed. Give yourself time to have a drink or a coffee before boarding and just relax. I recommend wearing socks and reminding everyone you're with to do the same; the shoes are probably coming off when you go through security and the floors are filthy. Also, I seem to get sick every time I fly so, not sure if it helps or not but take extra Vitamin C on the days leading up to your journey and while on the trip.

Meanwhile, our mother made sure we were all dressed and polished, looking our Sunday best! Those were days when the airline stewardesses were like glamorous fashion models.The pilots and co-pilots were equally glamorous and handsome! Travelling by plane was an exciting experience in the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s!

    I'm in my mid-50s and I believe one can never be too old for style tips. I remember flying in the 1970s as a boy on legendary airlines such as PanAm, Eastern, TWA, when there was no such thing as a "flight attendant" (they were "stewardesses" and all were glamorous) and people dressed up to fly. Of course, back then there were not the long waits and security like now, and you had to have a bit of money to travel, so it was a different experience. This summer I will be taking two international business trips with one side pleasure trip. Mindset is so important when traveling, especially long distances. Thank you for the tips.

    I always wear golf pants and a complimentary jacket when traveling. Put an emergency kit in your carry on. Toothbrush, mints, stain pen, a small tube of moisturizer, pen and some recipe cards (for note taking or jotting down an idea that pops up) Also good to write down names of people who give you good service for later comment online. A gentleman will always assist those that need it. I even carry a couple of simple pocket magic tricks and a book of short stories in case I get seated next to a separated child or one traveling alone or if they are watching cartoons I will watch the same one with them. Things might go wrong, so just roll with it. There isn't anything that you can do about it and most times neither can the other person.

    Travel attire is always a button down shirt , nice slacks , stylish shoes and a blazer. Overseas trips are my time to splurge and I see the travel element as part of the whole vacation experience so always fly business /1st and always get to the airport early enough to spend a decent amount of time in the lounge , having a glass of bubbly and a meal before leisurely boarding . Not having to rush makes such a difference in ones stress levels, you dont become one sweaty mess from having to run/rush .Ones dress, manner, ettiquet and behavior definitely sets one apart as a gentlemen from the rest of the traveling masses . I have frequently been given upgrades because of it (as there has been no other reason for the upgrade) . Off to Italy and London for 10 days in September.

    I did a Carnival (yes, low-brow Walmart of the Seas Carnival) with a dozen neckties 👔. Probably the only Carnival passenger ever to do so. Tux 3 nights. Double breasted suit 8 nights. No jacket 1 night. Tie every evening, and for one matinee stage performance. Double breasted embarking and debarking. One large bag for suits. One medium bag for hygiene, liquids, etc. One personal bag for laptop, prescriptions, and extra change of clothes. Hard-sided checked bags. Bag handlers prefer high-quality wheels. I always get respect from every and all client-facing staff. I also did MSC cruise. That fashionable Italian office crew adored my fine suit.. When I visit my jeans and tee-shirt family, I always tell them that I have to change into "Airport clothes" on finishing my visit. Suit coat pockets are perfectly functional for passports/tickets.

    When a friend and I went to Las Vegas for the Formula 1 race we realized that a round trip ticket upgraded to JSX charter jet was less than $200 more than a commercial flight from SFO. The experience was vastly more enjoyable. Small airport, a nice lounge to relax and get coffee. We were allowed to bring anything on the plane essentially as we brought a couple bottles of Champagne for our host for the weekend. Look into it if it’s an option. Could not recommend it higher!

    From a guy that has flown pretty much all over the world in business and first class. Here are my tips. Wear lululemon or similar comfortable workout clothes. They breathe properly and keeps you warm when it’s cool in the plane and if it’s warm and you sweat. Well, it’s designed for that. Wear ankle socks. Bring at least two pairs. I change them when going to sleep. Again, my choice is lululemon Wear sneakers with the laces just tight enough to keep the shoe on. Your feet will swell. And loose fitting shoes help be more comfortable. Merino wool top shirt. Very thin merino long sleeve shirt will keep you warm or cool depending on the external plane environment. Cashmere scarf. Large. Thin as possible. It is easy to pack as it folds into almost nothing. It acts as a thin blanket or a wrap around. It regulates temp perfectly. Headphones over ear buds. Drop one of those earbuds out of your ear and into the seat. Just consider it lost. Plus, headphones seal out noticed=se better. I am a germaphobe so I only use my own headphones. Antibacterial wipes. I was wiping my airplane cozy area ten years before Covid. At first people thought I was nuts. Now, they realize I was from the future. Spend the extra pennys and get an extra water and a light snack in the airport to keep with you. Sometimes flight attendants are very busy. Even in first class. Tooth brush, paste and floss. You need it. Especially for the other people. iPad with charger. I don’t like the screens on planes regardless how big it is. Plus, all the movies I want to watch are on my iPad. I bring a charger because I don’t trust a possible power surge on the plane. Face wipes. Best thing ever to freshen up before a take off, when you wake up and when you just landed. Your welcome. 😁

    I fly long haul a few times a year. I make all my purchases on a credit card that earns me Avios points, which I can then use to get free upgrades to premium economy or business class. I usually do premium economy when flying West on a day flight and if I can afford to, I'll do business on the Eastbound red eye (I can usually only afford to do this about once per year with the amount of points I get). When going premium economy, I usually pay for lounge access or find a comfortable restaurant that gives you almost lounge like experience. This makes the whole experience that little bit more bearable!

    The worst way of starting a journey, as you said, is being late to the airport. I once had a business trip to Oslo and were (I thought) on time at the airport. However, after spending two hours in the security queue had to run for the gate. Arrived to Oslo sweaty and already tired. Took all day to wind down.

    Because of prior experiences, having to help restrain people in a plane, as well as having to evacuate a plane. I always travel in a good pair of lace up boots. Last thing i want to worry about is my footwear falling off. Also i have always used a duffel bag of sorts with a shoulder strap(s). When you have to move quickly a hard case you will most likely be leaving behind, but a soft leather duffle bag no problem. I definitely agree dress to impress. Everyone ends up treating you / listening to you better. Yet as much as possible, balance your outfit to the environment you are going too. You dont want to stick out like a sore thumb. That just makes you a target, for the local thieves. As always enjoyed your video!! Cheers, beers and whiskey 🤠 🥃

    When traveling to and from the airport, don’t rely on public transit. Spring for a cab or drive. It will cost more but be infinitely more glamorous and stress-free, as opposed to juggling all your bags on the bus or subway.

    Your background makes me wonder what you think about architecture and the influence of Bauhaus to it. I personally have to say that I consider the architectural designs implemented in the western cultures before the Bauhaus are theto be the beautiful ones which cared about beauty, style and representation. Those are the buildings that often stand to this day and make our cities gorgeous. Especially as a german I have to say that I can not be proud of the Bauhaus part of my countrys history. But I am always open to other opinions and interested in hearing other side, if there are some.

    Pertaining to airport security, Don't travel with a DE razor kit if you're carry on only, you will get stopped and all your toiletries taken apart and tested for illicit substances + you cannot carry the blades themselves anyway. Also, Jeans with buttons, No. You will get a pat down search where the buttons are (aka your front toolkit) and they will drug swab your clothes for good measure.

    I’m conflicted about the suggestion not to travel with a backpack. I realize they are usually not as stylish as a good quality roller bag. But in my experience having traveled many times over many years, mostly on international flights, I find a backpack to be more convenient than a roller bag. For example, on crowded flights, some airlines will force you to check your roller bag but allow to keep your backpack; a backpack leaves your hands free and is easier to move quickly with; and if space is limited on the plane, a backpack will compress into spaces that a rigid roller bag will not. I prefer Goruck backpacks, which open flat, have a minimalist aesthetic, and are solidly built. The more stylish models are made with waxed canvas and leather. They also cost more than many roller bags. Anyway, I know I’m not at my most stylish traveling with a backpack, but it’s far more convenient in my opinion.

    It’s a tired point I’ve shared but it came to mind again, and that’s the point of being slightly annoyed that a majority of people assume that any dress clothes by default are stuffy and uncomfortable. Because of this misconception (stemmed from people buying ill-fitting clothes with ill suited fabrics), people assume it’s better to travel in shorts or pajamas. For me, I do find my formal menswear attire comfortable. More so than the “comfortable” clothes people wear.

    Do not wear shorts when flying. No matter how comfortable or climate of your destination. I did it once on a flight from Phoenix to Las Vegas. I offered the window seat to my wife. I took the middle seat. I'm a big fella. Not fat, just big. As it happens, just before take-off our seatmate arrived, an even larger, not fat fella, also wearing shorts. Because of our size, we found it impossible try as we might, not to rub hairy knees. Fortunately, it was only a 50 minute flight and our awkwardness was soon over. But a 4- or 5-hour flight would have been insufferable.
