#1 one day before the flight. Not 2 or 3 days before the flight. One day before the flight.

#3 Eh, nope. Some Airlines do have a weight limit for personal bags and they can be really anal about it too. acute

Tips for how to be THAT person every other traveller on the plane hates... including everyone else who is exactly like THAT person, but thinks they are the exception for some reason.

1: Do not fly cattle class.
There is no step 2.

Enjoy your flight.

Many airlines have a carry-on weight restriction of 7 kg and they are strict about it. I prefer to check-in and pay extra for priority baggage service whenever this option exists. It is always a good option to have one change of clothes in your carry-on just in case the checked in luggage gets delayed. Most airlines fill seats (in the economy) from the rear of the aircraft so you simply can't board early unless you have a Gold/Platinum membership of the airlines!

Bend over the stewardess in the front galley and fuck her then depart the plane. Best trip ever!

Now Michael, is that really an appropriate comment to be making my good fellow?

Put your clothing in a carry-on, but store everything you'll have to remove at security as a personal item (aka your purse, backpack, shoulder bag).

"This move will save you so much time at the security line. If your carry-on suitcase is just full of clothes, you can throw it on the security belt while you focus on your personal item, which will have all the "questionable" items like liquids, large electronics, and food.

Packing this way also ensures everything you'll need in-flight will be in your personal item (which should be stowed under the seat in front of you). That way, you won't need to get up and open the overhead bin to rummage through your suitcase mid-flight."
