It has been 2 years since I have flown. Before that I flew on a regular basis for work and personal travel. I am getting ready for my trip - any tips for covid protocols that I should be aware of?

Expectation management: there’s a high probability you will see someone doing something unintelligent, if not putting themselves at risk or blatantly disregarding the asks. Just know it will happen, and it will make things easier to accept when it does; and just keep walking by.

I’ve experienced more delays and cancellations. It might be helpful to check which airlines have multiple flights to/from your destination as a backup if your flight gets delayed or cancelled.

Add in some extra time to your usual airport time. Requirements change frequently so try and go with the flow a bit. I would recommend carrying print outs of any certificates/documentation as sometimes it’s quicker that way than using digital versions (also then you don’t have the battery running out fear!).

One other thing to bring is your patience as things will take longer, airport and airline staff are under more pressure so if you’re in the position to be a bit more friendly then that always goes a long way…they get shouted at a lot! 😔

Oh and I always try to bring extra sanitiser and wipe down those arm rests/tray tables just in case (at the very least it makes me feel better!) 👍🏼

Bring extra masks, ensure you triple check testing and vaccination documentation requirements, local apps needed for accessing public spaces

Most airlines have a page based on your destination letting you know the specifics of what you need. This is important as different destinations have different requirements. Be prepared for things to change though. Check regularly.

I have a Q that I worry is going to make me sound like a jerk, but want some opinions. I do strength training 2x/wk with a trainer who was assigned to me at a gym where I bought a pack of sessions.

I pay $150 per session for these workouts (cont’d in comments)…

I have a game I love to play at the airport. I find someone who has the most vague resemblance to someone famous and then insist they are that person.

Guy who very very vaguely resembles Tom Hanks insists he isn't. Then I keep insisting he is.
