Flight attendant shares hacks to avoid extra airport costs | Lifestyle

A flight attendant has shared a list of things you should avoid buying at the airport.

If you are looking to upgrade cabins, purchase an economy seat and be as patient as possible – ignoring all emails – before asking at the airport instead.

The flight attendant also suggests avoiding paying for checked baggage and – if you need to – freezing liquids of more than 100ml to take them as hand luggage.

It is also suggested to bring your own empty bottle to fill up with water – and pack food and snacks – rather than purchasing items on board.
