Get Started, LEARN YOUR RIGHTS in an airport

Part I

Overbooking:

If any company have an overbooking, it would have to ask for volunteers that they would give up their traveling in exchange for some other benefits. If there are not enough volunteer people, the company could cancel your ticket but it would have to give you a compensation. If your traveling is to 1500 km. you would receive about $300. If you have a ticket for 3000 km. then you would receive $450 approximately. If you travel more than 3500 km. you may receive about $630. Moreover the company would have to ask you if you prefer to receive the price of your ticket back or another fly and pay you for it. If you have to wait for other trip, it would provide you food, beverages, hotel (if it is necessary), transportation between hotel and airport and two call, text or emails.

Flight cancellation:

If the cancellation is a charge of the company, you should be compensated like we said in the overbooking rights, except if you know it at least 15 days before your trip time or you got another trip with similar time. If the cancellation produce you more than 5 hours of delay you have the right to receive the price of your ticket or another ticket. As in overbooking, the company must provide the resources necessary to survive.

Delays:

If you have a delay of more than 2 hours in a 1500 km. trip, 3 hours for between 1500 and 3500 km. trip or 4 hours for more than 3500 km. trip you may receive food, beverages and hotels extra-night totally free. If you got more than 5 hours you may get the ticket price back or another trip like in overbooking or cancellations.

The first step: YOUR LUGGAGE!

At the time to travel you have many decisions to do but the thing that people have more questions without solve is the first problem once they have all decide How should I made my luggage? There is many companies which ones you may travel and different way to travel: airplane, bus, car, boat and so on. For that reason there are so many different ways you should do your luggage. But there are so many different tips that may help you to made the best suitcase ever too. Whatever is your way to travel, there is always an issue that is present in all of them when you do your suitcase, the space. Traveling in an airplane the companies do not allow more than 25kg. free in your suitcase per person and other small of 10kg. If you pass that weight then you would have to pay for it. On the other hand if you traveling in your car you may want the less weight possible because you only have one trunk and if you travel with other people, the space you may occupy is becoming smaller. So being be able to do a good and small suitcase is always interesting. There are many factor that may influence in the decision what you put in your suitcase like how long your going out or the place your visiting. If your traveling for a week-end or a short week you should put the clothes you may use in that time. However if you are going for more than a week then you should do it like if you go for a week. The reasons are:

1. You will not probably have enough space for all your clothes.


2. Normally every place you may visit have any method to get your clothes clean.


3. Most places have stores when you could get clothes if you need it.


4. You will probably get any more thing that could be difficult to transport back if you have already your suitcase full.

But for not look like everyday you may put clothes we will be able to combine with other you have and the look seem different.m

In any type of traveling hygiene is important too. For that there are several things we must not forget:

• Toothbrush.


• Toothpaste.


• Dental floss (only if your usual to use it).


• Body shower (little version).


• Shampoo (smalls like the samples).


• Hairbrush.


• Deodorant.


• Towel (if your not going to a Hotel or any other place close to the civilization).

But one important thing you have to have present is have your documentation near of you, easy to access but in a safe place. Many suitcases have a pocket in the front of it to enter your documentation. However the best place when you travel with many other people like an airplane is to have it into the luggage you will bring with you in every moment. Thus you can access to it in every time easily but you also can see if a person try to steal it.e
