4. Heavy or Expensive Jewelry
When it comes to air travel, it’s a great idea to steer clear of very chunky jewelry or heavy metal accessories. While they definitely add a bit of flair to your travel outfits, they can also lead to longer wait times at security checks- something you could easily skip.
Bulky items can lead to discomfort on long flights, making it hard to unwind. Furthermore, valuable jewelry raises the chances of theft or loss in busy airports or while passing through security checks. In case of a quick evacuation from the plane, wearing heavy jewelry could limit your mobility or lead to injury. Choosing lightweight and affordable accessories boosts comfort and minimizes stress while traveling, helping you concentrate on your trip.

Good job! Thanks for the reminder about claw clips (although I rarely wear one outside of my home) but especially about too much (or any for that matter) perfume/cologne. I am one of those people who is especially sensitive about scents that will give me a terrible migraine. My family and friends know not to wear strong scents around me, but it never fails that on a plane I’ll be sitting near someone who has seemingly bathed themselves in scent. For that matter, I’ll also be seated near someone who overdoes their fragrance. Not only will I end up in pain, but I won’t be able to taste my food properly. So thanks for your reminders.
I wear cotton fabrics. Polyesters are flammable.
I have stressed that very same thing. The worst thing about polyesters is that they melt to the skin, continues to burn and then have to be peeled/cut off. As cotton burns it falls off. I’d rather be inconvenienced by some temporarily exposed skin than to spend months being repaired in burn units.
An airplane can get really cold, especially around your feet. When I see someone getting on with flip-flops, I know they will be very uncomfortable, why do you think first class gets a pair of socks? Also, this is the biggest piece of advice I can share NEVER sit on the aisle holding a baby. When those luggage bins open up luggage often falls out, and I’ve heard horror stories.
Nothing worse than a screaming baby on a long flight.
A list written by a woman.
None of which a “real man” would do.
#1. *Don’t wear synthetic clothes, in the event of a fire they will painfully stick to your body and you will die a slow painful death if you survive the crash or fire event..
I live in Central Florida and I cringe at the airport seeing all states of undress. Flip-flips, short-shorts, bathing suit tops. In an emergency a person needs to move FAST – even to RUN. Flip-flops and sandals don’t allow quick movement or protect from glass, cut metal or the big, heavy feet of others. Polyester fabrics melt to skin when exposed to fire – and it removed by peeling or cutting off of skin. Cotton fabrics are the best because they turn to ash when burned. ‘Tennis shoes’ give the best foot coverage and solid, sure-footedness.
*wish shorts, especially high cut, & crop-tops would be banned, with potential for body fluids and sweat contacting the seat material for long exposure times…
*wish they would announce a mandatory requirement & compliance for mouth & nasal passage coverage during a cough/sneeze, effectively pulling up neck section of clothing up over the mouth & nose to trap the released droplets/spray, if no readily available tissue….contain it with
*wish they would ask people with long wayward hair to keep it confined to their space
*wish they would remind flyers to keep conversation volume to a very low level
*wish they would board the plane from the back to the front
I very much agree regarding loading from back to front. First Class should load from Front; everyone else from back door!!!!
