How often to airlines check a lap child's age?
in
My husband and I will be flying with our child from Texas to Ohio. Our daughter will be a little over the age of 2 when we fly. We really don't want to buy her her own ticket. It would be a waste of money, as she can just sit on our laps, and most likely will spend most of the flight there anyway. My question is how often do airlines check the lap child age requirement?
Answer:
Most people say airlines don't check a child's id very often simply either because it's obvious the lap child is under 2, or a child over 2 already holds a ticket. In your case, the airline will ask to see her birth certificate when your child is already over 2. Try at your own risk of not being able to get on the flight.
How to get to Hammerfest, Norway by plane from North America?
in
I live in California is there any airport than will reach the one in Hammerfest, Finnmark, Norway.
Answer:
You must first get to a Norwegian airport (or Copenhagen). I assume that you will need at least one stop on the way.
From Oslo (capitol of Norway) there are flights to Hammerfest Airport, but check the route. Some flights have only one stop, others have as many as 7! Thus the travel time from Oslo can be from 3 to 7 hours. I just checked the prices, and you can get a one way ticket for as low as 1 172 NOK .
You can also get a flight from Stavanger (on the west coast of Norway) or from Copenhagen (Capitol of Denmark).
How to prevent ears getting plugged on airplanes if chewing gum and eating hard candy doesn't work?
in
I'm going to Cancun in the summer and I have to take an air plane. What I usually do to prevent ears getting plugged is I'd wear my earphones and listen to music the whole flight. But I'm looking for another way because that can sometimes be very annoying. I've tired chewing gum, hard candy, swallowing, plugging my nose and breath through a closed mouth and repeatedly swallow. But it doesn't work.
Answer:
i used "earplanes" the last time i flew which was in august and they worked great!
my ears don't get painful when flying they just get plugged so i can't hear well for a while and let me tell you i didn't have that problem when using the earplanes.
you can get them for like $5-$6 from walmart/target/cvs....
How to get from Frankfurt Airport to Frankfurt Downtown and how long?
in
So I will have a stop over in Frankfurt for 6 hours and 20 mins. I was wondering, what way is the fastest to get to downtown Frankfurt? And will this be enough time to go into the city?
I don't really have to walk around the city, I just want to go there and take some pictures and get back so I dont miss my flight. If you have any tips, that would be greatly appreciated!!
Answer:
6 hours is not enough time. you really risk missing your flight. If you wanted to explore Frankfurt, you should have planned a longer airline.
How to shave in flight? Is shaving kit (razors, blades etc) allowed in international flights?
in
I need to shave my beard everyday since many of them turned gray. However while in international flight(which takes around 25 hours) how would I shave? Are blades, razors, shaving cream allowed in international flights? If not then how would one shave in flight?
Answer:
Safety razors and less than 3 oz. cans of shaving foam are allowed and many airlines offer them in business and 1st class. Just go in the bathroom and shave, I usually bring along an electric razor on long flights, it's a lot easier than foam and razors in a cramped airplane bathroom. Electric and safety razors are not prohibited and are perfectly fine to bring onto an airplane, at least in the US and Asia where I fly to and from frequently.
