    About this ebook

    You might not want to be a flight attendant, battling non-stop jet lag and coddling cranky passengers, but haven’t you secretly longed to travel like one? Imagine breezing past lines at security and customs, relaxing in comfortable transportation to your hotel and stretching vacation dollars with special discounts.
    Now, a former flight attendant with 30 years of service and 20 million air miles shares her practical travel advice and true-life stories to give you the optimal vacation experience. Learn how to pick the perfect destination, find the best airplane seats and breeze through security and immigration line-ups.
    Along with creative budget tips, you’ll read about fire and hotel safety routines that may save your life and what to do if you’re arrested or detained in a foreign country.
    An interactive table of contents, live links to important sites plus the Ultimate Travel Checklist makes this the ideal guidebook for every traveller.

      Suits, Sanitiser And Going Nowhere Slowly
