How To Navigate Through An Airport When You've Got MS- 9 Tips on Making Your Life Easier
In a few days we'll be off to some warmer weather in Tampa Florida. 4 times per year we meet with a group of individuals from all around the world. A lot of them are doctors who we discuss multiple sclerosis with. So I'm very grateful to get together with these experts in their industry who are so very intelligent and knowledgeable about health, spirituality, and wellness. And your lucky too because I write about everything I learn and pass it on to you!
So I thought it would be fitting to do an article on air travel and multiple sclerosis. Here are some tips on making your travel easy, stress free, and
economical even if you got a disease MS.1. Use airport transportation. We always have a shuttle bus pick us up at our home and drop us off directly in front of the airport terminal. No worrying about my car and where to park, no shuffling from one parking lot to another. I look at this way, I'm going to have to pay for parking at the airport or I can pay to be picked up at my front door. The answer is obvious, vote for the pick up at the door.
2. Make sure all your boarding passes are printed before you get to the airport. Saves time, confusion on how that little machine works, and waiting in lines.
3. Always check with the airline before you leave home. Make sure your flight is still on time. Many times flights from the night before come in late and the following morning will be delayed for extra sleeping time for the crew. Of course bad weather and mechanical issues will play a factor in delayed flights.
4. Be a minimalist in your packing. Only pack what you must have. Polices have changed and you will pay to check luggage in. We never check our luggage. One because I don't want to pay and two I hate waiting for the luggage to arrive in baggage claim.
5. Make sure you have plenty of time between flights in case your initial flight is delayed or located at another part of the terminal. Reduce your stress by increasing your time.
6. Make arrangements to have an electric car for pick up once you arrive at your terminal. This electric car will transport you within the airport along with your family or friends.
7. Select seats in the airplane at the front which makes for an easier entry and departure.
8. Keep your boarding passes and drivers license in a handy necklace around your neck. You'll finally know where it is at all times.
9. Make sure all medications are in its original container with your name on it. If your medication must be refrigerated place it in a cooler and take it with you on the airplane.
And last but not least. Don't ever put your wallet in plain few on those gray little pans when going through security. Mine magically disappeared when I came back from a trip to Las Vegas. Of course no one new where it was. Luckily, I never carry any cash in my wallet!! Too bad for the thief.
