Flight planning
Prioritise bookable, workable options
Start with the correct departure airport and a realistic time to reach check-in. A flight that leaves too soon to meet baggage-drop or security requirements is not a usable option.
Compare direct flights with connections by total time and disruption exposure. On urgent travel, a shorter protected itinerary may be more valuable than a lower headline fare.
Flight planning
Prepare before opening the seller
Have passenger names exactly as shown in travel documents and confirm passport or visa requirements first. Last-minute tickets can have restrictive change or cancellation conditions.
Check whether online check-in is available and whether the fare includes the baggage you must take.
