Travelling by air
Nowadays people who go on business mostly travel by air. This is why here is a list of recommendations which may be helpful. Passengers should arrive at the airport at least two hours before the departure. They must register their tickets, weigh in and register their luggage. Passengers should be aware that there is free luggage allowance of 20 kg. Excess luggage should be paid for. Finalizing this procedure is the boarding pass which is given to every passenger. It contains an indication of the departure gate and time.
When the boarding pass is given the passengers should proceed to the passport control where his or her identity is checked and the so called green light is given for the departure. When on board the passengers should be careful and watch the electric light signs. When the “Fasten the seat belts” sign goes on, do it promptly, and obey the “No smoking” signal. And do not forget your personal belongings in the plane when leaving it.
After the landing the officials will check the passports and visas of the passengers. These formalities are more or less similar in all countries. In some countries these officials may also check the passengers’ certificates of vaccination. When these formalities have been completed the passengers will go to the Customs for an examination of their luggage. If a passenger has nothing to declare he or she may just go through the ‘green section’ of the Customs. But sometimes the Customs inspector may ask you to open your bag or suitcase for inspection. This is done to prevent smuggling. After you are through with all customs formalities you are free to cross the border and enter the country of your destination.
