So you are getting ready to fly for the first time and you wonder what you would expect. Little nervous or scared is certainly understandable, and you should use that nervousness to motivate you to be as prepared as possible. Here is what you can expect, in short, when you fly.
When you get to the airport you will need to check in your luggage and get your gate pass. One thing I always do is to check in online in advance, then you can use the porters at the edge of the road and past the long lines inside. They will set you up and take your luggage for you, it makes part of the process easier. Just remember to tip porters, they really appreciate it.
Once you're at the gate you can go and ask for bulkhead seats. The seats are usually provided by some airlines when you get to the airport. By sitting in the bulkhead seat you will have extra legroom. Also ready to take the lumps if you are required unless you are on the schedule is really tight. If they see you, you will rarely all that far behind schedule and they will give you free airline ticket for your problem.
Once you're on the plane and everyone buckled in the plane will taxi to the runway. If out of ice will deice aircraft, which can be a bit stressful, but it's for your own safety. Once the plane was on the runway it will pick up speed quickly and leave the land. You will experience some of the sounds, such as the landing gear was raised, and the plane will speed up and slow down so do not be nervous, this is very common. If you are nervous about taking off keeping your eyes on the flight attendants, if they are calm then everything goes normal.
The rest of your flight will be all up to the pilot, and you will only be landed and got off the plane at your destination city. I hope that this short article has helped you with the jitters you may have about flying. Remember that thousands of planes taking off and landing all over the world every day, it really is a safe way to travel.
