Stay grounded when flying

If it’s a long layover, visit the airport lounge.

Don’t get discouraged over a canceled flight, but don’t wait around the gate desk either.

The best way to handle a canceled flight is to call the airline as you wait in line at the ticket desk. There’s a good chance you’ll reach a phone agent first.

Equally as important, you won’t have to negotiate with the same frazzled gate agent who’s been dealing with dozens of disgruntled fliers.

It’s difficult for infrequent flyers to justify the severalhundred-dollar annual fees associated with airline lounges. But if you’ve got a long layover, it might be worth it to buy a one-day pass that’s available for Admirals Club, Sky Club, and United Club for $60 or less.

Amenities include everything from complimentary snacks and drinks to Wi-Fi and shower suites.
