It’s my first time flying on an airplane by myself. I bought the tickets online from southwest and am flying from one city in california to another. I need to know everything I will need to bring, not bring, where to go, etc.
Thanks!
What type of ID do you need? Can it be any?
Oh, and what about a boarding pass? I hear you have to print it out?

Since it’s a domestic flight, try to get there at least 1 hour before the time on your ticket. It takes a while to get through the security checkpoint, and boarding always begins 30 min. before takeoff.

When you get to the airport, go to the terminal for the airline you’re flying with. Check one bag (there’s a new rule now that if you pack a second bag they charge for it) and bring the other with you to the security checkpoint. Have your ticket out at the checkpoint along with your ID; it makes things go a bit faster, and they won’t let you through without both!

Don’t bring more than one carry-on bag (what you’re bringing on the plane with you) and one piece of checked luggage (the luggage that ends up in the plane’s cargo hold). In your carry-on, you can’t have any containers with more than 3 oz. of fluid (stupid rule, but apparently someone made a bomb that way?), and all fluid containers in your carry-on have to fit in a single ziploc bag.

Don’t pack any weapons, cigarette lighters, or any flammable objects. Don’t bring any knives or other sharp objects, wear as little metal as possible, and don’t even joke about explosives. The security workers at an airport take their job VERY seriously.

I love to travel, visit new places and friends. Nevertheless, i am afraid of flying and airplanes. I feel very uncomfortable when the plane takes off, during the flight, i have an awfull time till the plane lands. How to overcome my fear of flying in airplanes?

Well what is it about airplanes that makes you uncomfortable? If you don’t trust the pilot, there isn’t much to worry about. Just about everything the plane does is automated. From taking off, cruising, even parts of landing are all done automatically without the pilot needing to do anything. Most of the time, the pilot is there for the ride just as you are. He is mostly only there to take control of the plane if there is an unnatural occurrence during the plane’s flight. If such a happening were to take place, it would be dealt with promptly and efficiently. You’d never even know something changed. Commercial airplane travel is still the safest method of long-distance travel. The planes that are built today are able to fly using only one engine, however, they are still equipped with two. Anytime a plane has a malfunction or error of some sort, the airline and plane manufacturers both work immediately to fix the problem to eliminate it from happening a second time no matter how small the problem was.

I hope this was helpful.
