When buying your ticket, ensure the status is 'OK.'
If you book far ahead, phone to confirm your reservation
at least 72 hours before you fly. Many airlines operate
no-smoking flights; check beforehand. Get to the airport
and check in two hours before
the flight, as latecomers sometimes lose their seats to
standby passengers. Arriving early means you can choose
your seat. With window seats, you do not have people climbing
over you to visit the bathroom throughout the flight.
Beware of non-reclining seats in front of partitions and
emergency exits. Seats behind emergency exits have more
legroom.
On the plane, take a pen for Thai immigration and customs forms and some
reading material. Avoid alcohol – drink water. Stretch and take regular walks
around the plane. During descent, clear the pressure in your ears by swallowing
and yawning. At the airport, report any baggage claim problems promptly.
