ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT FLIGHT TICKETS- EPISODE 2


FEATURES OF A FLIGHT TICKET

 

One may be happy to have purchased a flight ticket, but how would you know you have been given your money’s worth? In this episode, we share with you some unique features to be looked out for as any genuine ticket would have them conspicuously displayed for your perusal.

Beyond a name and date, a flight ticket would usually have the following which most passengers do not necessarily pay attention to.

 

Conditions of carriage (Rules)

This rule spells out what items the passenger can either or not bring along the trip.

Eg. Sharp objects, certain foods, alcohol, lotions(soaps, body cream). Ignoring this particular rule will have your priced items seized by customs.

 

Baggage allowance

A flight ticket would also tell you how much baggage you are allowed to carry unto the flight. Exceeding it will result in extra chargs and sin some cases, shedding off some weight to meet the required standards.

 

Check-in-time

Quite a number of passengers fault in this area as they miss the check in time. It is usually written by the agent or flight office personnel and in most cases two hours before the flight departs. Being on time for this is important as it prevents unnecessary delay which comes at a cost to the airline.

However, during this COVID era, it will be best to show up at the airport at least 3 or 4 hours before departure considering the long queues and and a few delays as a result.
