Airport security tips to get you through faster

Taking a trip by flight? These days with increase in the number of budget flights, there is a big increase in the number of flight travelers. But as the airports are getting busier, the infrastructure and staff is not adequate enough. So everywhere on the airport, one comes across queues- queues for baggage check-in, for getting boarding pass, for security check, etc. All this has made flight travel a big hassle. Even the two hour prior reporting time is not always sufficient for a calm process of boarding the flight. In most cases people have to really rush or then miss their flights.

Being a frequent flyer, my personal favorite tips to get done with the airport security process faster are:

1. Avail curbside shuttle services- These shuttles pick you up from your doorstep and drop you at the curbside check-in counter just outside the departure gate on the airport, avoiding all the parking tensions and you arrive straight at the counter where you can check in your baggage, get your boarding pass and head directly to the duty-free zone, without standing in a single queue. But don’t forget that this service is available only if you have an e-ticket and is mostly chargeable.
2. Keep all your documents handy- Documents like e-ticket, identification proof, passport (in case of international travel) should be always easily reachable and carefully held so that they can be presented whenever necessary, without having to look for them at the last minute.
3. Check flight status in advance- Most critical thing is to reconfirm the flight status from the airlines website or download apps like flightstats or triplt, which are very user friendly and inform you in advance about the situation and flight details. Make sure you reach in time, according to the recommended prior check-in time.
4. Travel as light as possible- Travel light in context with two things, one your baggage and second your clothing. Too many things in hand obstruct swift movement. Keep all your belongings like electronic items, wallet, mobile, etc in your bag before security check. Also, more the number of layering of clothes, more the time required to remove and wear it like jackets, scarves, belt, ornaments like bangles, watches, etc  during the security check.
5. Reach to your gate and confirm there- The best thing to do after the security check is to first get to your gate, cross check or re-confirm that this is the right gate and only then heave a sigh of relief. With the airports becoming huge in size, it becomes very difficult to go from one gate to another on the last minute. So to save yourself this panic, always check flight status boards.
