    But is there a way to make traveling with a Low Cost airline more enjoyable?

    The answer is Yes, we at The Flight Club we come to your rescue and have compiled a list of little tricks and tips to avoid Regret not having started collecting points from the couch And not having taken a free business ticket.

    1 - Choose the right place

    Avoid the place central like the first slice of the bacon, if there are no other slices available and you are hungry then the choice is forced, as well as the middle seat in a low cost, choose it only if you are obligated.

    The place window is among the most coveted, one can endorse to rest without discomfort and there is a great view, the only downside is having to get up because this will lead us to disturb our neighbors.

    If, on the other hand, you are tall then the place corridor is the most suitable: extra space for the legs (except when the stewardess will bump into you with the trolley rack) and the ability to get up without disturbing anyone. Also the distance from the bathroom Is not to be underestimated.

    2 - Choose the right company

    It's okay Low Cost, but there is Low Cost and Low Low Cost... some companies often bring delay, services are almost nil, and on board you are like sardines.

    It is important to choose the right company in the right territory, but even more important is to also choose based on the aircraft that will be used for the route. A very comfortable Airbus A220, spacious and quiet or a Boeing 737 max just back in the air?

    3 - Choose the right time

    The hours of tip are always the worst for traveling in Economy, crowded airports, delays, packed planes...

    Insiders in the less crowded sections are also more available, maybe stretch that extra radioactive package of taralli that always comes in handy.

    4 - Don't arrive too early at the airport

    Unless you have a lounge passes of the airport don't go excessively early, clearly don't reduce to the last second but choose the compromise suitable to avoid sitting too long waiting at the gate, those seats are uncomfortable and people talk loudly.

    5 - Equipped parts

    If the leg is long and you want to take a nap, pillow, book, newspaper, iPad, powerbank, various cables, snacks, water, earplugs, eye mask are small items lifesaver That will surely make your journey convenient And no surprises.

    6 - Travel comfortably

    Kind of like when you would go on a school trip, you would dress "onions" in such a way that you could dress and undress as you pleased and in speed.

    Do not underestimate the shoes, the day of the trip we walk a lot before we get to the hotel or wherever our stay will be, better tennis shoes than heels!

    7 - Eat lightly

    One of the best choices you can make, it is best to eat well and light before you leave, there will be room for snacks During the journey if you get hungry.

    It is better to travel light in every sense than to find oneself in situations that are not too pleasant.

    8 - Check empty seats

    Once the hatch is closed the games are played, who's in is in, and it's a good time to raise your head and peer in to see if there are empty files.

    Unless you are talking about the extra-space rows for a fee, flight attendants will not make any fuss if you ask to change place, basically yesterday you fell down and your leg hurts and you need to lay it out better, right?

    9 - Stretch your legs and moisturize

    Especially if it is a long route it is necessary to occasionally get up, stretch a little, to avoid having pain in the evening or the next day, especially in the back.

    Airplanes are dry environments, the dehydration is around the corner and can lead to an annoying headache, something we want to avoid when we are traveling.

    9 + 1 Rate Premium Economy

    Business and First Class are known to be for the few, Unless you take advantage of the benefits of American Express, you might instead consider buying a ticket in Premium Economy.
