On Getting Up in the Air: Summer '22 Style
Here are our latest strategies for you to have the easiest travel possible.

⭐️ Check for parking and transportation options well in advance.

⭐️ Arrive much earlier than you are accustomed, even for my frequent traveler friends. Maybe especially for them. It's a little wacky right now.

This afternoon they have the D TSA checklanes c.l.o.s.e.d. 😳😳😳

⭐️ Expect crowds.

⭐️ Line up some great Podcasts or music and plug those headphones in.

⭐️ Breathe. Smile. Breathe again.

⭐️ Thank your airport service teams.
The ticket agents.
The bus drivers.
The gate agents.
The flight crew.
Everyone is overworked right now and on the edge.

⭐️ Dress for this weather.
The airports aren't cool and the airplanes are steaming hot.

⭐️ 90 anything equals a near certainty level of planes warmer than you prefer.

⭐️Try to sit back and remember the luxury that air travel is even when it doesn't feel luxurious.

There are lines everywhere, for everything.

⭐️Distract yourself and toss your winning Type A in the nearest recycling bin.

Everyone has roared back into air travel for pleasure and for business. Let's give the airlines a minute or two to catch up. But do hurry. ;)

From the very temporary, oh so ad-hoc🤯 Admiral's Club on the 2nd floor of Charlotte International airport, I wish you all safe, smooth and successful travels.
