The airports around the globe have increased security levels and make travelling very friendly and safe. Airport safety is the main concern in all countries and they want to meet the highest standards to make passengers feel like home in their travel.
We can offer you some simple tips that you as an individual can follow and feel safe during air transportation.
One thing that most of people forget is to travel with larger aircrafts. Larger means more expensive but also safer. They meet high standards and regulations and they are certified. There is much more space and you will feel more comfortable. Also in the unlikely situation of an accident, larger aircrafts provide a better possibility for a passenger to survive. Now let's move on to some basic tips.
First of all always pack only the required stuff that you need. This is basic because you can see every time that many people carry too much luggage and there is the time they will leave their bag unattended. The airport policies are strict and will return any lost items but leaving your bag alone will be an easy target for someone to steal it. The possibility of getting your luggage stolen is more than getting it returned to you.
If you are travelling alone avoid talking to strangers. There is a chance that people would like to talk to you but given the present situation, airport is not the ideal place to meet new people even if the look friendly. Always stay in public view. You can relax in the lounge or the cafes where the airport personnel can see you clearly and always have your bags by your side.
Now after getting on the airplane make sure that you fasten your seat belt. Keeping the safety belt on will give you the extra protection you might need in case of flight turbulence. Look at the safety signs and listen to the flight attendances. Flight attendances are there to inform you about safety.
Wear comfortable clothes during your flight and don't hold any thick or hazardous objects that might injure you or your fellow passenger.
If you have any medical problems like thrombosis you should get up and walk a bit to the toilet and back. This will help the blood circulation and avoid any future problems during a long trip.
Last but not least is alcohol. Don't drink too much. Alcohol can affect your attitude strongly on air than at sea. It can produce nausea or even panic. Finally it can injure you or the passenger next to you.
Concerning airport safety these are basic simple tips that will surely help you to be safe and enjoy your travel. Nowadays the dangers are everywhere and you cannot trust anyone. If you do not think for yourself no one is going to think for you and help you. Be responsible for your own self and enjoy your trip knowing that you are safe.
