Traveling by airplane has its own advantages and disadvantages. If you are living nearby the airport, then you are actually quite lucky because you reduce a lot of traveling time and energy. However, if you are living in a remote area wherein going to the airport itself takes you two hours of travel time, then you need to prepare a lot. Preparation is not just for the journey but also for the things that you would need when you are back home after the journey.
Ever wonder why airplanes avoid flying over Pacific Ocean and Mt Everest?
Here are some tips if you have to leave home quite an early morning in order to take that flight.
1) If your flight timing is early morning, then you should keep your things ready a day in advance. Your clothes, bathing essentials, important documents, etc. have to be kept prepared in your handbag and luggage at least a couple of days before the flight date. It is so that you can prepare eating essentials a day before and keep that as well ready.

2) Curd rice is one of the best options for your stomach as you would be having food on the flight or outside restaurants. A day before your flight date, you can cook rice, mix it with curd and salt and add tadka so that is ready for you to eat on the journey date. You can also keep in handy chapatis or theplas prepared at home or from outside in your tiffin box that can be eaten with pickles or jam etc.
3) Now you have to plan in advance what you will have once you are back home. The first thing that you can stock is milk and curd as per the family members’ requirements. The second thing you can stock in the refrigerator is dosa Aata which remains good even for a span of 7 days if kept in the fridge. On your arrival, you can remove these items from the fridge and consume them rather than buying foods from outside.
4) As the stomach part of the departure and arrival date is done, now you need to focus on what other things you need to keep ready so that when you wake up in the early morning hours, you just have to brush your teeth, have some coffee or tea and leave the home for the airport. Make a list of those things and tick them off as you finish them.
5) Remember that your neighbor should be informed about your arrival and departure date so that in your absence if an important letter or person comes, they intimate them accordingly. So, a couple of days before your flight journey, you can keep your neighbor in the loop of your absence from your home.
6) Don’t forget to carry the keys and close off all the important switches of light, internet, water connection, gas, and TV. You can check thrice or four times for your satisfaction rather than leaving the home with no assurance. You can keep the valuable items of money and gold (if any) at your home in the bank locker a week in advance so that you leave the home without any worries.
