Agreed. Go in two hours beforehand and you spend 80% of the time waiting to boardā¦unless you are the kind of clown who canāt follow directions in an airport.
Standing in a queue then to sit down in the same seat thatās been assigned to you anyway.
Itās all about getting your carry on luggage in an overhead bin.
I do not remember that, they mustāve changed shit around
Youāll be standing in a queue to get your carry on luggage on the far end like a muppet then.
Iāll be in a cab on the way to the City to do bidness while youāre waiting for the carousel to wind up
They keep space free in the front row. If no space beside you just hand it to and air host and pick it up at the front/back of the plane as you stroll off.
Do you be flying first class?
It gets fucked into the baggage hold
From the plane? It does not. At fully boarded they donāt have time to be adding bags to the hold. The air host finds a space. Itās like having a waiter for your bag if youāre savvy about it.
Racing from a plane straight to a meeting? God help you theyāll run rings around you.
It does. On every airline Iāve flown anyway and I flew to London every week for 3 years and back, gets tagged and thrown into the baggage hold. Iāve seen it happen dozens of times and every time the gobdaw having to do it was irate
You need to be last to board the plane, when they donāt have any time for any of that messing.
On Ryanair now youāre only supposed to bring a small bag that fits under the seat in front of you unless you pay for priority
The priority queue is as long as the non priority these days, sorry those days. Donāt know what itās like these days
What if youāre in a cunt off with another ignorant prick with the same idea?
Your bag gets fucked under the plane when there is no space
Sure luck, arrive two hours early and spend all your time queueing up if youāre worried about it. Iāll stroll on last as usual and Iāll still end up in the same seat.
sure you know better than a fella who flew twice a week for 3 years and a lad running an airport, an hour gives you fuck all wiggle room.
Some International airports are worth showing up three hours early for,
Even if thereās nothing to do surely itās nice to have a bit of a relax at the boarding gate with a book or a paper and a hot drink, rather than rushing around
if Iām going long haul where Iām checking in baggage Iāll give it 3 hours
if Iām only going with carry on Iāll give it 2 hours - Iāll have a breakfast or bite to eat or a pint depending on the time
Would you like to come and take a walk around the Louvre before your journey home? Ah no, Iām looking forward to sitting for 3 hours at the departure gate, its the highlight of the trip.
