Flying is one of the common ways of traveling, its fast, convenient and at times, cheaper as well, with such benefits definitely come some problems and hassles as well. When people say they like to travel, most likely they are referring to the activities they do at their destinations and not the time spent actually getting there.
First and foremost you want to know that your flight and accommodations are appropriately setup in order to provide the smoothest transitions. In order to make this possible you should spend some time on the internet looking for deals on airline, car and hotel packages. Keep in mind when doing this that the earlier you setup you arrangement the better deals you will find remember more often than not discounted tickets will be announced in the middle of the week. If your planning on going to a popular destination or somewhere that you believe is going to have heavy travel I would suggest trying to set up you flight for 6 months in advance and if this is not possible make sure you do take care immediately or else the flights could fill up or the price of the tickets could exceed what you were hoping to spend on your flight. If you are planning an international flight you should try either purchase travel checks or make sure that you have the proper currency for your destination this will save you a lot of time once you reach your destination.
And in preparing your things you should make sure that your luggage is tagged, as it will most certainly help you identify your luggage almost immediately when you are collecting them.
Prepare yourself physically before the flight, go running or go to the gym to lift some weights before you get on board.
If possible, bring your own eye mask and headphones to block out the sound whenever you may need it. Bring your own small inflatable neck rest as well, these can help you to make you sleep better and give that extra comfort free or charge. In addition you should also prepare a small bag which include all the essential documents like your driver's license, your passport and your emergency contact numbers. This way, if your luggage should be lost at the airport, you will still have a way to get help and continue with your vacation. It is important to be always prepared.
