Air travel could be stressful tight schedules to meet, new rules to follow, and added handling of documents and luggage needed. And don’t forget to make sure you wear clean socks on for the shoe removal check at security. Enough to put anyone on edge. That’s why it’s necessary that air travelers be courteous to each other.

You’d make traveling more pleasant for yourself and others by following these guidelines.

• Open the doors for other people and you also need to smile at them as they’re passing through.
• Keep your boarding pass and ID ready so you do not create delays checking in, going through security, or boarding the aircraft.
• You have to be patient when you are standing in the queue. (Believe it or not, an impatient individual offered me $100 to jump before of me in a long airport line.)
• Offer your seat (assuming seats aren’t reserved) to elderly people.
• You should be willing to switch seats with people who want to sit beside their friends and family. One day you may want the favor returned.
• Pay attention. Airlines have become strict about bringing on board just a single carry-on (small enough to fit in the overhead bin or under the seat) plus one personal bag.
• You are now restricted in bringing liquids like shampoo on board in your carry-on. You can just have three ounces of each item and all items must be put into one-quart plastic bags.
• If you’re planning to bring food or drinks into the plane make sure you are getting items which don’t leak or smell. Don’t bring more than you can easily manage.
• Don’t put anything in the overhead bin which could perhaps leak onto other passengers. (Picture flying home to Grandma with leaked vodka on your clothing or in your hair.)
• Avoid wearing perfume; it might cause discomfort for individuals with allergies.
• Be aware of how loudly you speak while in the concourse and on the plane, especially when talking on a cell phone. Avoid disturbing people around you.
• Use headphones with your DVD or CD player, even so you do not disturb others.
• Avoid standing in the aisle and having long conversations with individuals who are seated. Other people around find voices coming from above distracting and even annoying.
• If a seat between you and another passenger is free, do not put your things on it and claim it for yourself; kindly share it.
• Be mindful of how your overhead air direct and light affect the individual or people beside you.
• Be conscious of the passenger behind you when you put your seat back. Ensure the angle isn’t intrusive or uncomfortable for which individual.
• If you’re seated in the window seat, do not block the view of others who might want to look out the window during takeoff and landing.
• If you’re flying with kids, be responsible for their behavior; don’t expect flight attendants to control them if they get out of line.
• If you sit in the aisle seat, keep your foot and arm in front of you; don’t let them wander into the shared aisle space.
• Because other people are waiting, be mindful of how much time you spend in the bathroom. Do not take time to refresh your makeup, for example. You will have opportunities to stop for that at a restroom on the way to baggage claim.
• Don’t drink too many “adult beverages.” Drinking alcohol hits people harder at high altitudes and can contribute to air rage. You might be blocked from boarding if attendants think you have had too much alcohol beforehand.

Be patient, have a sense of humor and enjoy the ride!
