For example, what are the best shoes to wear at the airport security screening to not be asked to take them off? Or are those scanners you have to go through harmful to your health? Or how long the things seized during the pre-flight inspection can be stored at the airport for? You’d definitely like to know how to cancel non-refundable tickets and get your money back or how to significantly reduce the costs for transfers, hotels, and food even if it’s your first trip and you don’t have any discount cards. So here's the list of advice you should heed before your next trip.

In most cases, you can have free snacks and drinks there. - While in the baggage claim area, you might have to pay for Wi-Fi; but in the arrival zone, it's almost always free. - If you’re in the middle of a bad cold, but you absolutely have to fly, take a painkiller before the plane takes off and lands. - You can’t keep power banks in your checked baggage. - When going on a trip, instead of taking the whole perfume bottle, take a tester. - If you have a brand-new unopened bottle of nail polish in your carry-on, it's ok. But if you've already used it, put it in your checked luggage. - . Seemingly innocent things like plants, seeds, and some types of food may be prohibited if you're flying to Australia, or other particular islands. - You're more likely to find unoccupied toilets in the baggage claim area, near customs, next to big cafes, and in waiting lounges. - While packing for a long flight, remember to put a couple of tennis balls in your carry-on. If you roll your feet on them during the flight, your legs and feet won't swell up. - Statistically, the safest seats are in the tail of the aircraft. - If you're traveling through several time zones, try to do more physical activity the day before. - If there are lots of empty seats on a plane, and you have the airline's bonus card, you can ask the flight attendants to move you to business class. - You can still pay for your onboard purchases with your bank card, even if there's no Internet on the plane. In this case, the money will be withdrawn as soon as you land.

22 Free Things You Can Take from a Hotel Room

22 Free Things You Can Take from a Hotel Room

Hey, it’s the source of those 18 tiny shampoo bottles and bars of soap in that bottom drawer of your bathroom cabinet! Yep, I’m talking about hotels and all the stuff we like to take from them, even if we don’t use it! But be careful there, sticky fingers – you’re technically only allowed to take certain things! By the way, if you ever want to take something from a hotel room but doubt you can, simply ask if you can purchase the item or check if your hotel has an online shop where you can buy all those cute pillows and soft blankets. Because, yeah, you can’t take the bedding and towels! Other videos you might like: If You Notice This In Your Hotel Room, Run Fast! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ag1Fk... Why Hotels Never Provide Toothpaste and 16 Other Insights https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6RMOK... Put a Glass on Your Door Handle, It Will Save Your Life! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6k4j... TIMESTAMPS: Soap and lotion 0:28 Shampoo and conditioner 0:50 Toothpaste and mouthwash 1:07 Shaving cream and razors 1:36 Deodorant 1:58 Sewing kit 2:14 Shoeshine kit 2:29 Shower cap 2:45 Plastic bags 3:01 Hairbrush or comb 3:26 Stationery 3:35 Envelopes 4:05 Magazines and newspapers 4:29 Coffee, tea, and sugar 4:54 Coffee mugs 5:16 Bottled water 5:44 Snacks 6:05 Bathrobes 6:28 Slippers 7:06 The bathtub ducky 7:39 Umbrellas 8:00 The “Do not disturb” sign and magnetic key card 8:28 #hotel #traveltips #brightside SUMMARY: - That bar of soap is there for you and only you to use. The next person who stays in your room will obviously get a new one. - Feel free to take your Barbie-sized toothpaste and mouthwash to-go when you check out. Some hotels also provide travel-sized toothbrushes for guests. - Hey, if the hotel so kindly left you some shaving stuff, kindly accept the gift, even if you packed your own! - Shoeshine kits usually include black shoe polish, a shine cloth, and shoeshine brush. - A hairbrush or comb is yours. But any other hair tools you find in a hotel room, like a hair-dryer or straightener, shouldn't be taken. - While you’re stocking up on writing utensils, go ahead and throw the envelopes in your bag too. It’s one of those things you always forget to buy even though you need it more often than you realize. - You can grab any reading materials the hotel has left for you to entertain yourself. - If your hotel provides stuff to make warm beverages right in the room, then don't hesitate to take the tea bags, coffee pouches, and sugar packets if you want. - If you're staying in a country where drinking tap water isn't okay, then most local hotels will stock your room with free bottled water. - To avoid extra spending, you should assume that all food and drinks in your hotel room are not free. - Some hotels put price tags on the bathrobe hanger to make sure guests are aware that it’s not a free item you can take home. - Slippers are not reusable, so if you leave them in the room, they'll get thrown away. That's why it's no biggie if you get hold of one pair. - Obviously, umbrellas are pretty expensive compared to slippers, but in most cases, you can keep one.

Always Fly with a Tennis Ball in Your Carry-On

Always Fly with a Tennis Ball in Your Carry-On

Whether you’re getting around by car, train, or plane, traveling can be uncomfortable and inconvenient, even if you love it. Your flight can get delayed by a lot. Sitting in close quarters for a long flight can slow blood circulation and cause the muscles to cramp. Your ears can pop during take-off and landing. So pay attention to some tips that will make your next trip a breeze! For example, make sure you have an empty water bottle in your carry-on. That way, you can get past security with no problem and then just fill the bottle up at the airport. Most have drinking fountains, so you’ll save some cash!

Pilots Reveal 16 Nuances That Make Your Flight Safe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVYXE... 10 Things You Should Never Wear on a Plane https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSFky... TIMESTAMPS: Pack a couple tennis balls in your carry-on 0:16 Keep some chewing gum in there too 0:47 And a pillowcase… 1:16 And a trash bag! 1:43 Keep your clothes smelling fresh 2:05 A trick for wrinkle-free clothes 2:24 Put a “Fragile” label on your suitcase 2:47 Instant razor guard 3:10 Make your suitcase stand out 3:28 Keep your clothes nice and clean 3:49 No more tangled cords 4:20 Organize your jewelry on the go 4:33 Don’t lose your bobby pins 5:02 Keep your shirt collars stiff 5:24 Support your back on a flight 5:44 Book a really early or late flight 6:03 Go big on lunch 6:27 Help your body with jet lag 6:49 Carry an empty water bottle with you 7:18 Drink water 7:43 #TravelingTips #lifehacks #brightside SUMMARY: - If you take 1 or 2 tennis balls with you on the plane, you can use them as little massagers to relieve and prevent that pain. Roll it along your ankles, calves, legs, wrists, back, and shoulders. - Chewing on some gum actually keeps your ears from popping during take-off and landing. - A trash bag or two will be a lifesaver when you come out of the airport at your destination only to be met by…rain! - The dryer sheets will keep your garments smelling fresh and clean like they’ve come straight from the laundry. - If your luggage is marked as “Fragile,” it should be handled more carefully by baggage personnel. Plus, it’ll likely be put on top of the other bags. - Grab a binder clip and clamp it onto the blades of your razor when you pack. This will save you from any accidental—and painful—injuries. - You don’t need to go out and buy expensive and flashy luggage. Use a plain basic suitcase and tie a bright ribbon around one of the handles. - When you’re packing, wrap your shoes up in shower caps. This will prevent the bottoms from dirtying the rest of your clothes. - Whether you’re flying or driving, keep all your chargers and power cords in a good-sized sunglasses case. - You know those pill containers with little boxes for each day of the week? They’re also a great way to store and organize your jewelry when you’re traveling. - Keep your shirt collars nice and crisp by lining them with a belt. - Most airlines provide a pillow and blanket so that passengers can get a nap in during the flight. Take that little pillow and put it behind your lower back. - If you’re going to be switching time zones, start making changes to your sleep pattern the day before you leave. - The air inside airplane cabins tends to be very dry. Drink plenty of water, or another drink that contains electrolytes, to prevent dehydration.

9 Brain Exercises to Strengthen Your Mind

How to improve your improve your memory, sharpen your attention and focus, and boost your brain health? These gymnastics for the brain were developed by Yoshiro Tsutsumi, a Japanese researcher and author of the book Finger Self-Massage Yoshiro Tsutsumi. Starting From Scratch. The set of simple exercises described in this work focuses on improving general well-being and supporting brain health. If you repeat this short finger workout on a daily basis, the stimulation traveling from your fingers directly to your brain will help to rejuvenate your body and make your brain more efficient. Each fingertip has more than 3,000 mechanoreceptors, which act as a highway to your brain (particularly its sensory cortex). When you do a finger workout, you improve synapse connections and fire neurons, which is great for the functioning of your brain. TIMESTAMPS: Exercise #1 1:39 Exercise #2 2:45 Exercise #3 4:01 Exercise #4 5:03 Exercise #5 6:41 Exercise #6 7:06 Exercise #7 7:29 Exercise #8 8:42 Exercise #9 9:02 #brainexercises #memoryimprovment #brainhealth Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ SUMMARY: - #1. Repeat this exercise 15 times. Your breathing should be a bit faster than usual. The most important thing is to do the exercise smoothly and not to hurry. Try not to lower your hands, and coordinate your movements and breathing. - #2. Repeat each movement at least 10 times. Your breathing should be rhythmical, and your fingers should be spread as much as possible. - #3. Repeat these movements at least 10 times. Make sure you bend and straighten each finger thoroughly and completely. - #4. When the brain ages, your memory, attention span, and concentration weaken. Luckily, this finger workout can help you deal with this problem. The following exercises will help you improve your memory. - #5. First of all, tightly press together the fingertips of your thumb and index finger on your right hand. You should slightly curve the uppermost part of your index finger. Repeat this exercise 20 times for each hand. - #6. With the fingertip of the thumb on your right hand, press down on the bottom of your right index finger, middle finger, ring finger, and pinky in turn. You should apply effort to do this exercise. After you repeat this motion 20 times, do the same for your left hand. - #7. As you've probably understood, your brain is tightly connected to your hands. Since most people have one dominant hand, the brain hemisphere connected to this hand is more developed than the other one. Thus, lefties have a more active right hemisphere, and right-handed people enjoy a more developed left hemisphere. To activate both hemispheres, you can try the following exercises. - #8. Try to perform everyday activities like brushing your teeth, eating, opening doors, or writing with the help of your nondominant hand. This can develop new connections between the 2 hemispheres of your brain and encourage the activity of the less vigorous hemisphere. - #9. Start to write by hand more. This activity provides perfect brain stimulation and improves neuroplasticity. Specialists recommend this method to patients who suffer from memory issues or dementia.
