16 Signs You’re a Frequent Flier

Via

 

16.  You refer to cities by their airport codes.  As in, “I went to IAD last weekend and next Tuesday I’ll be flying to ORD.”

- Oh yes yes yes believe it or nor (or you notice)always do that. I would use ROC, SLC, OMA, for short cut while i am talking about those city while texting or writing. FUNNY!!!

15.  You’ve had your baggage lost, damaged and pilfered through so many times that you now avoid checking a bag at all costs.

- Yuppers already went through 3 different suitcase last 7 years! However, still check in my bags since can always get new suitcases. 

14.  You know the difference between a through flight and a direct flight.

- Ofc I do :)

 

13.  You’ve memorized various aircraft seat maps and know which seats don’t recline and which offer extra leg room.  You know what the word ‘bulkhead’ means and you avoid sitting there.

-Not really, I just know where to sit if I have a short layover, long layover, or where I am going. For example, I have a 45 min layover in ALT (Atlanta, GA) on way back from Dominican Republic, best seat near to front as possible so u can get off quicker to make it to my next connection. In addition, I always choose way back of the plane on my last flight, because I know my check-in bag will take forever so take my sweet time get off the plane :-)

12.  When shopping for toiletries, you subconsciously purchase all of your shampoo and toothpastes travel-sized.

-Not at all, I always pack them in my checked in bag. 

10.   Whenever it snows or there’s a thunder storm, you feel a sense of foreboding and automatically think of flight delays and cancellations, even if you aren’t flying anywhere that day.

-Yup it does happens to me several times! 

9.  You can actually sleep on a plane, (even if your seat doesn’t recline or your seated next to an infant or the aft lav).

-I used to be able to sleep on the plane very easily but now I noticed am starting to struggle to sleep on the plane. I guess I am getting older and mind those uncomfortable seats. BUT if i have the row to myself I always put my leg on it then will able to sleep well! :)

8.  You can never remember where you parked your car at the airport.

-Never park my car at airport before, have wonderful family and friend to help me out! <3

7.  You carry your passport in your wallet at all times…just in case.

-I used to but now am afraid my purse will get stolen, so put it in a safe place and have it with me every time I fly.

6.  The customer service agents at the ticket counter begin to recognize you.  Some see you so often they begin to wonder if you work there.

-Probably lol 

5.  You have multiple wireless hotspot accounts and know where all of the electrical outlets are at multiple gates, in multiple airport terminals.

-Nah, no need for that. I can survive just fine without those for few hours, however, I got my phone which is good enough!

4.  You have a favorite airport, a favorite airport bar, restaurant, shop, chair.

-Yuppers I do! My fav airport is DTW (Detroit, MI and MSP- (Minn, St. Paul, MINN)... I know where best place to eat in between my flight. Also, know what to get if I ever fly to ORD-(Chicago) one of the airport i AVOID!- they have best popcorn there! YUMMY!!

3.  You can give directions to the nearest airport restroom or coffee shop, and not just in your home city airport either.

-I think I can do that only for MSP, DTW, OMA, ALT, and ROC which is my most frequency layovers. I can even image what the terminals looks like right now.. :)

2.  You’ve filled out so many immigration forms that you know your passport number by heart.

-I only flew in-state SAD SAD but looking froward to coming up trips out of America!!!

1.  Checking the time on your watch always involves a quick calculation, because it’s never set in the right time zone.

-SO TRUEEE!! lol
