iPod on international flight

iPod on international flight?
Hey all! I haven't flown in over 10 years and a friend an I are leaving tomorrow afternoon for Greece. We're flying from San Antonio to Switzerland, to Greece. I've seen some websites saying that iPods are banned from planes in Europe. I haven't been able to find a clear answer on this. Will I be able to take my iPod on the plane to and from Greece?

i think yes. why not.
2 :
laptops and portable gaming devices ARE alowed along with other portable music devices. I do not see how an Ipod would be an exception. just make sure that you can charge it. you can buy a USB wall charger for European outlets all over the internet or just in Europe itself.
3 :
Yes you should be able to bring it. It doesnt send out signals or receive them, so it's under the same regulations as say a gameboy or PSP or even a laptop. You will have to turn everything off during takeoff and while landing, and they'll let you know when you can switch things on and/or off.
4 :
Yes, you can take your iPod with you onboard with your hand luggage. It's still liquids (toothpaste, deoderant, shampoo, etc.) that are being strictly limited onboard. I checked Frankfurt airports website (one of the largest airports in Europe) out for baggage information and there are no restrictions for iPods, Blackberries, etc. Here's their website: http://www.airportcity-frankfurt.com/cms/default/rubrik/9/9828.baggage_control.htm Cheers, Petra M, Vancouver

They used to be Mexican states before they became part of the union. Texas and Colorado are racist because they are in the South and the South has a history of racial discrimination. Whites here are brought up to believe they are more classy and superior to blacks or hispanics (even if they don't admit it). Many blacks & hispanics down here have an inferiority complex that keeps them down and many are poor and ignorant which doesn't help matters. If you had a problem with the airlines, I would contact the FAA and the ACLU and sue the pants off them. If nothing else, you will get free airline tickets.
2 :
Why weren't all people of your race, whatever that is, being treated that way? Perhaps you were sending out peculiar vibes. It might lend support to that idea that you have decided to declare all people from two states, probably some twenty million people or more, racists, without ever having met them. That is racial hostility if anything is. On your part.
3 :
you'll find thousands people from others places or countries that are racists not only in Texas and Colorado
4 :
these white people descend from people who manged to wipe out an entire indigenous population, inflicted slavery to gain financial benefit and basically stole land from Mexico. It is their guilty conscience that has made them fearful of an ethnic minority. This has created a racist state. Through the opression of ethnic minorities, through lack of education and general lack of opportunities, white people will continuously be allowed to make racial slurs and politically incorrect comments to "keep us in our place"! I would sue the airline for all you can!

Any tips for using AirTran airlines

Any tips for using AirTran airlines?
I booked a flight from Richmond,VA to San Antonio,TX with 1 hour layovers in Atlanta. I leave early morning Jan 3 and come back in the evening of Jan 9. I'm just curious...what are some precautions I should take with this airline? I've never flown with them before, but I'm kind of nervous now, I've seen terrible reviews for them all over the internet. This is my first time flying by myself, so any tips for a smooth trip with AirTran are appreciated.

Well, I will admit that you could have picked a better airline to fly other than Air Tran, but they are't that bad. Just don't check any luggage if you can avoid it. They aren't the best airline out there when it comes to Mishandled Baggage Ratio. That means they lose a lot compared to the other airlines out there. You will either be flying on a Boeing 717, or a Boeing 737-800. Both are relatively new airplanes. You may have heard of ValuJet, the one that crashed into the Everglades in the mid-90's. Well Air Tran holdings bought ValueJet, and for a while were flying all of those old DC-9's. Those are all phased out now. The staff at Air Tran leaves much to be desired, and going through Atlanta isn't a pleasant part of the trip, but then again, when it Atlanta fun to go through? They do have XM satellite radio on their planes for your to enjoy while flying. As for safety, they are good. Hardly any major US carriers have safety issues these days. Just relax, you'll be fine. Trust me, the airline industry is so messed up right now, you'll have a crappy experience on almost evey carrier as we are all hurting! But I do hope you have a pleasant trip.
2 :
I've never flown AirTran but flying from Richmond is easy enough. It is a small airport and I routinely arrive 45mins before departure and have no problems. When you walk down to security AirTran use Concourse A which is on the left.
3 :
don't
4 :
AirTran is no worse than other airlines and better than a few. Inflight service is nonexistent on most domestic airlines. The economy class seats are about the same size on all airlines. The "best" airline is the one that has the best combination of schedules and fares because most airlines are pretty much the same. If you're flying on a 717, my best advice is to be short. The legroom is very tight. The 737's are better.

One hour connection between flights - will they wait

One hour connection between flights - will they wait?
My boyfriend is arriving on Sunday to San Francisco International airport at 9:20am. Problem is, his connecting flight bound for San Antonio, TX will be leaving at 10:45am that same day. He's not a US citizen so I imagine he has to wait in a longer line to clear inspections and immigration. I've passed by this airport before without much problems, but I'm a US citizen. My question is, if he's running a bit late in customs, do the attendants wait for him? I know when I flew to Japan, they waited on one passenger who was clearing inspection. What do you think?
Air Travel - 6 Answers
Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
1 :
normally if a passenger doesn't have enough time to clear customs they just bump him into the next flight. it's within US and airlines normally have more than one flight flying the same leg so they can do this.
2 :
No, they won't wait. He should let the flight attendants know he has a quick connection so he can do a quick departure from the plane. If he misses his plane, he can be put on another one; there could be a small fee.
3 :
no they will not hold the flight for him
4 :
Nope. They will not wait. Best thing to do is have no checked baggage. Last time I was going through immigration in SFO, the lines for aliens was shorter than the one for citizens! Immigration and customs can be fast. The part you have the least control over is waiting for the bag to come out of the carousel.
5 :
It's entirely possible that he will not be clearing customs in San Francisco at all, depending on where he is flying in from. While most flights from foreign countries to the US will clear customs at the arrival port in the US, there are some flights (mostly from Canada) that will clear customs and immigration directly at that airport. In other words, the 85 minute connection may be sufficient if your boyfriend already cleared customs before he got to San Francisco. (If you tell us where he's flying from, it will definitely answer this question as to whether he will have to clear customs there in the first place) If he does have to go through Customs in San Francisco, though, it's cutting it close, particularly if Customs has a delay or is particularly busy.
6 :
I just arrived last Sunday at SFO. That really isn't enough time. The bags take forever to come out! This is an airport that handles A LOT of international traffic, especially packed big aircraft coming in from Asia and Europe. The Flight Attendants have no control over the situation. It's the ground agents and to some degree, the pilots who decide. We would wait if there were a large group of passengers and/or if there was only one flight per day. Especially for a morning flight, he has all day to get to San Antonio. Be aware that some airlines "pad" their schedules so if his incoming flight is on time, he might actually arrive ahead of the published schedule and have time to make his flight. Also, it really depends at SFO who else is arriving at the same time. I remember if we were late into SFO, it was a disaster because there were two other flights coming in from Asia and immigration and customs would be packed! If nobody else is arriving at 9:20am, he might waltz on through... Not being a U.S. citizen/green card holder doesn't necessarily mean he'll be any slower getting through. Sunday, we were in a much longer line as U.S. citizens at SFO. Also, and this is a technicality, when you flew to Japan, if it were out of the U.S., there is no immigration check. That customer was probably only getting through security. Disregard if you were flying to Japan outside the U.S. Good luck and just keep checking!

It probably means you won't get on a plane in San A, and get off in Chic, you will make one stop inbetween. I think if it said connecting you would need to changes planes, a "stop" usually has the same plane, but they might make you get off and then reboard.
3 :
Hi, I am the CTO of vayama.com, a major online travel website. Whenever your itinerary says something like "1 stop". This means that your flight will normally stop at an intermediary city. For example, if you were flying from San Antonio to Chicago on AA, your flight may have a stop in Dallas, AA's hub. Normally, flights listed as "1 stop" domestically do not require a change of plane. Flights listed as one stop internationally, may require you to go from a smaller plane to a larger plane. Take a look at your itinerary carefully. It should show you were the stop is. Or you can type your flight number or record locator into the airline's website to see more information about the stop.
4 :
"1 flight stop" means that you'll take off from San Antonio and instead of flying directly to Chicago, you'll fly to another airport first and you'll likely have to change planes there. Then from that airport, you'll fly to Chicago. Changing planes is very easy and not nearly as daunting as it sounds. I'll use the same example - your first flight might be from San Antonio to St. Louis. Once you get to St. Louis, look for a flight information screen - usually it's either a flat-screen or regular "tube" television. Find your flight number (it will be on your ticket) and the name of the city you're going to (Chicago) on the screen, and the gate will be listed there. Follow the signs throughout the airport to get to your next gate - you might have to change concourses, but as I said, there will be signs to guide you. If you have trouble or any questions in the airport, just ask a uniformed employee how to get to your gate and they'll gladly help you. Have a great flight.

No entertainment except for the crying babies. Light food will be served. So will some soda, juice or water. Bring either your MP3 player, DVD player and buy some food after the security checkpoint. Bring earphones or earplugs. Those MD80s are noisy near the engines. Happy flying!

I wouldn't expect anything as far as entertainment. Bring your headphones and a book. If you're afraid it will be too noisy, bring some earplugs. Remember some chewing gum to help pop your ears from the altitude change! And if you have a cold, take a decongestant. Have a fun trip!

Those are older planes - and American seems to fly a lot of them for some reason and I can't wait for them to be phased out and replaced with newer Boeing 737s (which I'm sure will happen eventually, hopefully sooner rather than later). Anyway, I digress. They ARE safe but they lack any real features as far as entertainment and such. I would imagine that your flight isn't gonna be much over a couple hours though, so hopefully you can live without a TV to entertain you for that long I fly on these aircraft quite often actually since I usually fly American, and with the exception of these old planes, American is one of the best. I haven't found any part of the plane is significantly better or worse than any other.

You just have to deal with the folks who all seem to need to use the lav cause they didn't go before they left the airport. The noise is not that bad. Yes, the new 737 will be coming out to replace the S-80's...

I would also bring my own water, I recently read something about how dirty the flight attendants hands get because they are touching everything that everyone on the plane has touched, so even if they wash their hands you are not protected against other people who don't...yuck. Also, I don't normally use anti-bacterial hand sanitizer, but I bring it when I travel. That's all I can think of. Have a fun trip!

Traveling to San Antonio for Airforce ceremony....
I will be flying to SanAntonio with my 4 year old (his first flight) to attend my brothers airforce ceremony. I'm wondering if I'm going to have to rent a car when I get down there. Not sure what the area is like. We're going to be there for 3 days and 2 nights. So my questiion, Can I get away with not renting a car??

SA is a huge city. For example, the airport is pretty far from the bases. plus while you're there, check out the Paseo, and the Alamo & all those places, which are pretty far away from the bases. So I say rent the car and have a great time! might as well make the most of it, as it's a really fun place.
4 :
You might be able to take taxi cabs and buses... but, honestly? I think your best bet would be to go ahead and rent a car. San Antonio is a great big sprawling city. The bus system is not easy to understand. Does your brother have a car you could borrow? Also, as is the case at most airports, there are many rental car places right there at the airport. Welcome and I hope you have an enjoyable time, whichever mode of transportation you choose!

Um I live at the tip of Texas, but we do a lot of vacationing to San Antonio. I would say if you want to do different things yes! There is so much to do there Sea World, Fiesta Texas, River Walk, Outlets, and so so much more. It's awesome there I love it and I'm sure you and your little boy will to!!
6 :
If you can afford it, rent a car. A GPS would also make your life 1000 times easier. I realize they aren't cheap... Just sayin'. The bus system is descent but probably not ideal for someone visiting in your situation. Taxis are VERY EXPENSIVE. Plus, SA is a pretty spread out place. Bottom line: Get the rental car. Maybe there's a compact car with a built in GPS. Put your walking shoes on and on an empty stomach, hit the River Walk and surrounding area. It's a LOT of fun. San Antonio is a very family oriented town. Hope you have a good time. P.S. I lived there for 3 years and didn't once go to the Alamo. I'm told I didn't miss much. haha!
7 :
Airport is in the North Central part of San Antonio and Lackland is on the Southwest part of the ciy......................Sorry but you will really need to get a rental car to get around our city.
8 :
Definitely rent maybe a compact car , things are so spread out taxis would get pricey and you'd spend hours on a bus trying to get where you needed not to mention some walking which may not be good with a little one, check with advantage or alamo, ive found they have the most reasonable rental rates and close to the terminals
9 :
i would definitely say get a car. The city is huge and ur 2 most important points are about 20 miles apart (airport and lackland) which would cost about 46 bucks in cab fair, and that's just to get to the base. If u wanted to explore our city, which i highly suggest, you would be looking at hundreds of dollars in cab fare. if cost is an issue many of the rental car companies offer military discounts so you can get ur brother to get u the car to save some cash.

You do know that you can pull up a website for the airlines that service your airport and enter your data and get a price back - for FREE! For better prices vary your departure and arrival times. You can also just stop in to a local travel agency and ask if they have any special prices. Sometimes they have deals that do not show up on websites. In any event you get free information on flights that can be used from your area. You do not have to commit to any flight unless you want to. They may tell you it is too early to get a price. Closest price you might be able to use for now is today's price. You can even call the airlines for free and ask them too! Good luck.

Hi delita_hy... ! Thanks for asking. Look, I´m not too a hell of a traveller, but from my experience (esp. in the U.S.) I´ve learned that this seems very unrealistic. Try always to be generous with your time, esp. on vacation and flights, because 1) We don´t wanna hurry 2) There may happen unforeseen things, controls, schedule changes a.s.f. 3) We don´t wanna be stressed to start off a nice japanese vacation. My tip : Take at least 1 hour or a little more, what difference makes that time if anyway you fly that far ? I wish you a beautiful stay and experience in Japan. And : Get your plane, buddy !

Thirty minutes is a legal connection, but International flights close 30 minutes before departure because of additional paperwork that has to be done. You need to find a new travel agent or start booking travel for yourself. You honestly should fire that one because 30 minutes is NOT enough time to connect. At the 30 minute mark before departure on an Interanational flight all passengers must be on board the aircraft. Since you are connecting in Detroit, Im assuming you are flying on Northwest. This is per their website at http://www.nwa.com "International Flights: Passengers must be checked in at least 60 minutes and on-board at least 30 minutes before scheduled departure time for flights to/from Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, and all other International flights." There are no earlier flights from SAT (San Antonio) on Northwest that are non-stop. However, depending on your ticket, the travel agent could book you on an earlier flight leaving just after 6am, connecting in Memphis and arrive an hour earlier and have enough time to make that connection. OR call your inept travel agent who obviously does not know the rules for travel and have them make the changes and absorb the difference in fare for booking you an illegal connection. Going out, you wont go through customs or immigration, its always at the point of entry. But still...30 minutes from one gate to another, even though its on the same concourse is still cutting it close, you'll most likely lose your seat since they will release all unclaimed seats at 30-45 minutes before departure. Anyone not shown onboard the aircraft at the 30 minute before departure point is subject to cancellation of their seat and possibly their reservation. Cut offs are in place for a reason and if your inbound flight delays even one minute, you will absolutely miss your connection if they close the gate for any "runners" at the legal cut off. IF yje flights are slotted as they are right now, you have to go from A18 to A40. Most flights have the same gates every day, but there are last minute changes if the previous flight is delayed etc. Below is the map of the Terminal in DTW. So, legally you will not make your flight. Realistically, I doubt that either. So...Id start raising a big stink with the travel agent first thing in the morning. I also assume you are going to Osaka based on the departure time, and of course that is the only flight to OSA daily. I did, however see on nwa.com that they were selling a 33 minute connection with the inbound flight being a codeshare on another airline, but they even know thats not realistic because a slight delay and those passengers are up a creek. Ok, sorry for this being so long, but in short, you have the potential for disaster with that one. Always allow atleast an hour or more for International connections because if the inbound flight delays any, you will miss the only flight out to that city for that day. Any GOOD travel agent would know this.
9 :
seriously- ask the airline
10 :
I dont some people have read your post correctly unfortunatly... If you have booked this travel with the same airline and the luggage will go straight through onto your next flight and you dont need to collect it and check in agaiin and also within the minumum connecting time then there dhouldnt be a problem UNLESS your flight is delayed then it is beyond your control. Since security has caused delays in departure I believe in the US then this may be the underlying factor of your journey. I would however get you locator number from you ticket or give the airline your flight details and clarify that its OK to do this journey. What I would reccommend, if there is an earlier flight with the same airline going San Antonio - Detriot, then turn up for check in and see if you can get on this flight or best of all change your reservation for this flight. One problem you might find is that you can get to Japan on time but your luggage might not! Call your airline now and see what they say... Good luck and safe journey!
11 :
You're going to Osaka, right? You might make it because the train that runs along the gates at the NW terminal in DTW is very fast. Problem is NWA may not let you check in this itinerary at SAT, and the 8:25am is the first flight of the day to DTW. You could take an earlier NW flight that makes a connection somewhere else like Houston and get to DTW way earlier. I would stick with NW for the whole itinerary.
12 :
hmmmm, if it is all on one airline, you can request for a near front seat and have a good chance of getting it. \ If on two airlines, request a near front seat and show the 1st airline your ticket to try to get the check in clerk to feel sorry and give you that seat. NO FRONT SEAT, NO JAPAN!!!

My husband and I always fly Continental, and we find that the best time to fly is the last flight out and the last flight coming back. (We live in NJ and fly in/out of Newark.) The last flights in and out are usually pretty empty, so we have a great chance of getting a free upgrade plus better service. If you book everything together, you save a little money. I would recommend Orbitz.com. We use it a lot and its very reliable. The best way to get the cheapest rental car rate is to pick up and drop off at the same location. Also, some times renting it out for a whole week is actually cheaper than renting it for just a day or two, so I would suggest going on Hertz.com or Avis.com and playing around with the dates.

Most online travel sites including Orbitz do not support flights coming out of Manila.

You need to get a ticket bound for San Francisco, Los Angeles or Las Vegas and from there, get a flight to SA. If I'm doing it correctly, I believe Cathay Pacific has a direct flight to San Antonio for a little less than $2,000.

Pack lightly, take your ten essentials and nothing luxurious. Camping in the backcountry in Yellowstone will require a backcountry permit which you can get at a ranger's station in the park. Get a large hiking pack and take ONLY what you will need!! Remember that anything you pack in, you are going to have to pack back out. This means leave no trace that you were ever in the woods. If you have never been on a hiking trip before, it is a good idea to take a small weekend trip on a well-defined trail to see what you will need and won't need before you take any longer trips. BY THE WAY, you can't do an air drop into a national park. use your brain. Often times you can rent some forms of camping gear at REI stores. Things such as camping stoves, tents, sleeping bags, etc. Make sure to condition before you go out on a long hike! Hope this helps!

My husband is in the military so we moved a few months ago. I don't want my mom to take a set vacation because what if the baby doesn't come during that time frame. This is my first baby, and my mom's first grand child, and we are very close! They don't have a direct flight for our destinations and it normally takes 4 or 5 hours total from security check to arrival...depending on the lay over time to get to where i live. I'm also worried about the airlines having available flights from San Antonio to OKC since it will be late June. Do you think this will be enough time so my mom can still be by my side?

It is very possible- but don't get your hopes up.

They arrived 2 hours after he was born:-) My labor from first twinge of pain to baby out was 6 hours, and hten my 2nd baby was 5 hours from start to finish.
6 :
My first birth took 19 hours from the time my water broke. It depends on the woman and the pregnancy. I would think your mom should go ahead and take vacation time, about 2 weeks, around the time of your due date. If you have the baby before she gets there, she'll at least be there to help you through the first couple of weeks (which are a bit difficult.) If you go over, most doctors won't let you go over more than a week or two, so either way, chances are good that she'd be there. Also, I don't know if you're at Tinker or Vance, but there are a lot of good doulas in your area. When my husband was stationed at Vance I had a really WONDERFUL doula named Sara. She lives near Vance and can really recommend someone good if that's what you'd like. It really made a difference having a knowledgeable woman at my side. Even my husband appreciated it. Email me through my profile and I'll help you out if that's what you want.

I lived in a different state than any of my family when my first was born. Had I of not had complications the total time from when my water broke (at 3:30 am) until the baby would have been born was about 7 hours. Seeing as my water broke in the middle of the night, my parents wouldn't have had time to get a flight to get to where we were in time. He also came a full month before his due date. Honestly, it was more important for me to have my mom around after I came home from the hospital. Newborns are cute but they don't do anything. Once you're at home, with no more nurses helping, it's much more beneficial to have someone there to help.

I was induced with #1, my mom lived 5 hours driving away. I was grateful I was induced because I REALLY wanted my mom to be there!!

Yes, hubby can fly back, get them, and do the same again when it is time to go. And, as military on leave it puts him higher on the wait list. The down side is that he can't sign up until he is on leave. For spouses, you must have a letter from his commander authorizing you to fly, and the boys can only fly with their sponsor. Just be aware.... flights during the summer fill up very fast. Active duty in orders and DODEA teachers on summer break have priority. I've known lots of folks that have ended up paying full price for last minute tickets because of school timelines. Also, with the situation in Japan and Libya, much of the AF cargo fleet is otherwise occupied. We have folks deployed who are being put on hold for returning due to cargo aircraft availability.
2 :
usafbrat is correct. You are allowed to use Space A travel. The summer time and holiday seasons are the worst time trying to get Space A. I was stationed in K-town so i know you are flying out of Ramstein. I took a couple of flights from there and one time i had to wait 2 days. As the AF becomes busy with support missions the less space will be available for passengers. What the Commercial Airlines should make is special fares for Military Personnel stationed overseas. below find the Space A link. http://militaryliving.com/spacea/index.html

You could probably get off but your stored luggage won't get off with you. It will be tagged to go to your destination city/airport (Orange County).
2 :
It depends on how long your layover is, and if you have to change airplanes. Most often on layovers you will be exiting the plane and boarding a different one. Though you should not leave the airport.
3 :
You can however the rest of your ticket will become invalid and your luggage will still go to your original destination.
4 :
yeah but bring your luggage carry-on.. you don't want to lose it!!!
5 :
If you're traveling on a one way ticket and don't have any check in luggage you can do it. But if you have you have a round trip flight all remaining legs will be cancelled if you miss any of your connections.

Timing - San Jose airport to Manuel Antonio on SANSA

Timing - San Jose airport to Manuel Antonio on SANSA?
Our flight is due to land in Santa Maria International airport at 12:30 p.m. The flight from San Jose to Quepos (SANSA) is 2:10 p.m. We are carrying on our bags, not checking, since the baggage weight max on Sansa is 27 lbs. Will we make our 2:10 p.m. SANSA flight?

yes, it wont take you more than 1 hr tops to go trhu customs, even less since you are carrying bags. ask the people at taca counter for help and they will gladly direct you to the domestic station which is right next to the international terminal.
2 :
A hour and a half? personally, that is cutting it very tight. All it takes is a delay and you will miss your flight, not counting I have spent almost 2hrs waiting to go through customs, that normally takes no longer then 1 hr as the one answer said. However, SANSA has a lot of flights that goes to Quepos, so if you do miss your flight, you are sure to get on the next one, so don/t worry about it - just one of those things you can laugh about later ;-)

How to stop excess personal anxiety on soon 3hr airplane flight

How to stop excess personal anxiety on soon 3hr airplane flight?
Sometimes in flight I worry about having a heart problem even though I don't and my doctor said mine is fine. I do have diagnosed anxiety/depression (Generalized Anxiety Disorder and OCD) and mild depression because of it and take about 40mg fluoxetine (Prozac generic) daily which has helped a lot. I'm soon going with my family on an airplane trip and don't want my heart to beat too fast on the airplane but ironically this worry/focus makes it beat faster haha. I had this worry before and made it fine on a 7hr Tokyo to Honolulu flight and this time it'll be a 3hr Minneapolis to San Antonio flight. What can I do to be less anxious about my heart and have more positive focus? That is my only anxiety is that I'll have problems like that on the flight. I literally have less worry than most others about the plane crashing/turbulence fears, etc.

Did you know more people die from medical malpractice than they do in airplane crashes per year? You have no more chance of dying on an airplane than you do of dying somewhere else, so being in an airplane isn't really the problem here. Anxiety is a real issue, I'd recommend going to a doctor...but iatrogenesis is the 3rd leading cause of death in the US.... if the prozac isn't helping the anxiety, consider getting something else.
2 :
friend of mine is nervous on planes recently he had to take a business the dr prescribed xanax it helped. I think he took one before and during flight
3 :
Why not ask the doctor who is prescribing the Prozac to also prescribe a medication to hellp get over the flight. Please be very frank with him and tell him that you do need to have something that will ease your anxiety. Also try to have an appointment with a psychologist and she or he may be able to quell some of the anxiety you are having without medication. You might also try something like yoga or acupunction prior to boarding the plane which may help to ease the anxiety associated with the flight. There are also head sets which totally cut out the noise of the plane's engines and the other aspects of the plane ride. There are also IPODS which just are those that have music on them. It is possible to purchase one that can hold up to 1000 songs and does not need charging for an 11 hour period of time. This will allow you to forget that your heart has a tendency to beat faster to the point that you feel you are having a heart attack. I am sure your heart is normal. You just need to place your attention in another form so that you cannot experience this.

Confusion about connecting flights

Confusion about connecting flights?
I am flying roundtrip to Texas this upcoming June. I had to buy connecting flights (cleveland-houston-san antonio) then (san antonio-houston-cleveland). My question is, when I check into my flight in Cleveland, then land in Houston, do I have to check into my Houston-San Antonio flight or does the Cleveland check-in cover all of my flights for that day? any answers and advice are much appreciated. thank you.

You should be getting all boarding passes in Cleveland, but if for any reason you don't (in can happen) they agent will let you know to check-in Houston, but you can always ask to double check.
2 :
If you're on the same airline or partner airline you'll get both boarding passes when you check in for your 1st flight in each direction. If you have checked baggage, your baggage will also be forwarded to your final destination in each direction.
3 :
since you dont say what airline we can only guess if its the same airline (continental for example) or a partner (codeshare) airline then your bags will be check though to San Antonio if if one of you flights in on continental and connecting flight is on Southwest then you will have to claim your luggage at Houston and recheck them with southwest and re clear security again since southwest doesnt interline with anyone else (note if both flight are on southwest then the bags will be checked though to San Antonio
4 :
cleveland flight is enough for the day. if you check in bags, make sure you get a slip back from them and it should say where the final destination is. person giving you your tickets and bag slips usually tell you what city to claim your luggage but if they don't, ask.

I am flying out of San Antonio and they are calling for light snow..will this cause my flight to be delayed

I am flying out of San Antonio and they are calling for light snow..will this cause my flight to be delayed?

1 :
Light snow should not affect your flight that much. At most they may de-ice the plane.
2 :
It takes a lot of snow to delay an airport 20+ min plus. They will run slower to the runway, and they will de-ice the aircraft for your safety. Hope this helps!
3 :
was 1/2 hour late out of Dallas this morning due to de-icing.
4 :
If they get snow, it wont be an issue. What does cause issues is if your flying into an airport that does have weather- currently the east coast has a lot of rain which is causing some delays- that could be an issue but I wouldnt worry about it much (or if a major airport is delayed- that causes backlogs and sometimes delays flights even in a city that is sunny because maybe your airplane was delayed in that city leaving etc). Just check before you head to the airport click on your airlines check status link and type your flight number in to verify its on time.
5 :
Is snow common for SAT? If it is, the airline should be very well prepared. I live in a snow area and it takes approximately 5-7 minutes to deice. And since we deice every morning typically in the winter, our crew is very experienced with this and we usually try to board and push early to keep the aircraft on time. If SAT is not experienced with a lot of snow or deicing experiences, it might take them a little bit longer. I wouldn't worry too much over it all.

Is is smart to book flight today for $543.80 -- round trip from San Antonio, TX to Las Vegas, NV

Is is smart to book flight today for $543.80 -- round trip from San Antonio, TX to Las Vegas, NV?
Me and my boyfriend are leaving to Vegas September 10th - September 13th. (Thursday - Sunday) Yesterday I looked at Southwest Airlines to see how much the flights would be (round trip tickets) and it $738.00 for both of us. I looked again today and it was only $543.80. Should I buy these tickets or should I wait to see if the price goes down closer to September? ***I just don't want to pass up a good deal, but I have never flown before so I am not sure whether to buy these tickets or not. ALSO -- Friday I had checked the rates at Southwest.com and it was $1033, so far the prices have decreased. But will they get lower? HELP ME PLEASE!

Yea I just did a quick search for you and it looks like 277/per person is the best you're going to get. I would probably book that if I were you, they don't generally get too much lower.
2 :
Get them!! That is very cheap, and if they go down you can get the difference as a southwest credit. If they go down you rebook and get the 100 dollars as a credit so you cannot go wrong with buying them today.

What is the cheapest way to get from San Antonio to Austin

What is the cheapest way to get from San Antonio to Austin?
Flights are about $80 cheaper for me to go to San Antonio, so if I could get to Austin roundtrip for under $30 I'd probably do it.

It is 80 miles. That's about 6 gallons of gas for the round trip. That'd be what, 15-16 dollars? Austin is 80 miles north of San Antonio. The flight actually takes longer than the drive.
2 :
Greyhound Bus. $20. 90 minutes. The cost of gas is not the whole cost of travel by car. The real cost of auto travel is about 45 cents per mile. A car trip of 80 miles costs about $36.00.
3 :
Besides walking, the cheapest method is driving. The current lowest fuel price for regular gas in San Antonio is $2.06 per gallon. If your car gets an average 22 miles per gallon you would pay 14.83 for the round trip. Now one responder estimates the cost at $0.45 per mile and gives an estimate for driving at $72.00 for the round trip, meaning that there is about $57 in wear and tear on your car. I hope you drive better than a person who puts $57 in wear and tear on their car every 180 miles. Of course that includes the cost of insurance and other costs which your car would have sitting in a parking lot in San Antonio if you didn't take it. If you don't have a car, Greyhound is $38-$44 round trip. Amtrak from San Antonio to Austin is $30 round trip. Flying from San Antonio to Austin is time consuming and difficult.
4 :
Drive!
5 :
Definitely car or bus. It will actually take longer to fly than drive because you have to check-in, luggage, go through security, then wait for take-off. Plus when you land you have to get your bags and everything. So whatever you do, the cheapest and fastest way is not by flying.' Good luck! lauren

There are several prescription and over the counter remedies for anxiety disorders, the best of which I have only used recreationally, but Xanax is prescribed for it. A stiff drink usually knocks out any reservations I feel when flying, I usually am the only one cheering on the turbulence, but then again, I was the only one laughing while the guy hit the prop in the movie titanic.
2 :
I'd use dramamine since it helps with motion sickness and calms the body down quite a bit.
3 :
The only permanent solution is removing the root of your fears. Maybe psycho-therapy. A quick fix is of course a stiff drink or some beers before boarding the plane. However, I'm not an expert and I doubt that other posters here are. You should discuss this with your doctor.

Keep checking their website as well as the Denver Airport website. Weather conditions will dictate the status of any flights from DEN. AS of right now they have returned to operations, flights today were cancelled which may affect tomorrows flight operations. Keep track on their website and go in like normal if you see nothing about your flight. Tomorrow may be a better day, right now they are operating 3 of 6 runways, so congestion is inevitable. Their phone system is flooded for obvious reasons, but the same information can be obtained on their website.
2 :
If you can't get anything of the Frontier site, check out the DIA site http://www.flydenver.com/flights/index.asp It will give you up to the minute information. I checked the site and there is no flight 788, but there are two 688 (one at 7:40am and one at 8:50pm) and both are scheduled as on-time.
