I've been using Google Flights to track flights and get good prices. It alerts you when there's a price change so that you can get your ticket for cheap. It's absolutely awesome. I didn't know about Google Trips, I'm downloading it now.
> Sneakers, basic shirt, sweatpants. Fuck being overdressed, this is about being comfortable and getting through security as fast as possible.
My girlfriend won't let me do it, but that's exactly what I said last time. Having to take your belt off with jackets and all is a pain. I also wonder if there are clothes build specifically for travelling (like, with special pockets or things like that).
> Get a gym bag (I prefer simple black leather bag) or a light backpack, don't carry those tiny suitcases around.
Big time. I have a backpack and it works. I only have carry on, no suitcase to board. I'm wondering though what the best backpack would be to travel in Europe, like one that fit exactly the size Ryan Air wants.
> Comfortable earphones and a movie or even better, a physical book for the flight so you don't carry your notebook on the plane.
On my last flight I actually spilled coffee on my laptop. I guess both your advice to not carry a laptop and not buying coffee is good advice ;-)
> A traveler pillow is awesome.
Really? I've considered making the investment, but then the actual flight for me is just 1h30m (the whole thing like getting to the airport etc. 6 hours door to door).

Uhhh, how much do you like having bodychecks when someone notices a pocket? Regarding pillows, I usually do layovers and am sleepy when I get to airport so that's why I'm love them, but if you aren't flying for longer time, no need then. >I'm wondering though what the best backpack would be to travel in Europe, like one that fit exactly the size Ryan Air wants. I've been thinking of buying a backpack that I saw my friend has, don't know what they're called. It looks like a normal backpack with a flap on top, but the top flap is actually part of it and extends a lot. Also it's stylish so I wouldn't look like I'm backpacking through russia, but perfect for traveling.
- nkkollaw 10y agoI think I'll look for that backpack.
