HOW can those air stewardess PROTECT Jeremy???

Jeremy has bodyguards protecting him.

And I don't think those are air stewardess serving on China Airlines flights. Proabably they are just China Airlines customer services representatives/air stewardesses (ground service 地勤人员 ) serving in the VIP lounge. As courtesy, they just escorted Jeremy to the departing gate to send him off.

Posts: 474Location: Cloud nineJoined: Wed Nov 05, 2003 10:26 pm PRYUEN is right. As first class or VIP customers, most airlines will provide ground staff to escort passengers to the plane. In the case of Lufthansa, they even provide first class pax a ride in a Porsche accross the tamac directly to the plane, bypassing the gate altogether.

Guys, please stop calling the flight attendants as stewardesses, that's so yesteryear when FAs main duty is to serve. No one calls them by that nomenclature anymore. Nowadays, all you'll hear is "our primary duty is for your safety" LOL. But if you are flying premium cabins (biz or first) on carriers other than US based, you'll still get treated very nicely.

Travel 101 -   Part II: Air planes, Flights, Airports

Read in this section:

1. Flight and Ticket Language2. Cabin Classes and Upgrades3. Overbooked Flights – How can this happen?4. Flight Connections & Transfers

Left Turn: Delays, Changes, Denied Boarding… Can they do that?

1. Flight and Ticket Terms Unless you are a veteran traveler, some of the terms used for air travel may be new and quite confusing. Don't worry - we'll explain it here.

______________________________________________

Airline Codes or Flight Codes, Code-sharing… sounds like the secret service!

Simply put, it's a system the airlines use to identify their flights. Instead of saying: “The Wednesday Air Canada flight to London leaving at 20:00”, they use AC1004 = Air Canada Flight Number 1004 - and that says it all. Code-sharing is when airlines band together and share a flight. They may still maintain their own flight codes - that's why one and the same flight may be identified with both AC1004 and BA995 (British Airways Number 995). Knowing the code of your flight comes in handy when checking departure/arrival times, and for filling out customs or immigration declarations.

______________________________________________

Charter Flight versus Scheduled Flight

A scheduled flight is a regular flight whose departure and arrival times are published in an annual or semi-annual flight plan or flight schedule to service a certain route. It is not tied to certain conditions such as a minimum number of passengers buying a ticket (okay, we lied - if a scheduled flight is seriously under-booked, it may be cancelled and/or combined with another flight).

A chartered flight, on the other hand, is organized by a tour operator or an airline based on anticipated demandand to service a certain destination. Tour operators typically use chartered flights to take their passengers to vacations in increments of one week. Tour operators may sell “air only” tickets on these charters. Chartered flights can also be arranged by airlines at busy times (Christmas) to provide additional seat capacity in addition to their scheduled flights. Typically, chartered flights are cheaper than scheduled flights; however, they also carry more restrictions: cancellations or changes are either impossible or very expensive. Baggage allowances are lower as well. If you miss your charter flight, you will have to purchase a new ticket. IMPORTANT: Charter flights that are operated by a regular airline may have different terms and conditions than the airline’s rescheduled flights. Check baggage allowances and cancellation fees carefully.

No, it is not. A direct flight means that the same airline will carry you from A to B - but may make a stop at C where you have to change planes. Only a flight clearly identified as non-stop will go directly from A to B.

What is the difference between a Confirmed Ticket and Stand-by?

A stand-by ticket means that you have paid for passage to a certain destination but have to wait for a seat to become available. Normally, the ticket you purchase for a flight is a “confirmed” ticket. However, in some situations, travelers change their itinerary on short notice: your previous flight may have arrived early and would like to catch an earlier next flight, or you arrived late and need to be rescheduled on another plane. Some airlines also sell stand-by tickets when you book and the flight is already full. With a stand-by ticket, you need to wait until all other passengers have checked in and boarding is officially closed. You will then be allocated your seat at the gate (based on availability). How do seats become available on a fully-booked flight?

Ticket holders with flexible flight terms (business class) who re-schedule Passengers who missed their connections Airline personnel with work schedule changes “No-shows”: passengers who got sick or decided not to fly for other reasons

Who is the first to get available seats?

Airline policies differ greatly for stand-by seats and are not always disclosed.

“First come, first served” does not always apply, although it helps to be at the gate as early as possible

Some airlines give their frequent fliers or members of other programs priority Connecting flights with the same airline will be taken into consideration Configuration matters as well: if 2 seats are available and stand-by passengers are 1 solo traveler

and a couple, the couple will get those seats. However, a solo traveler usually has the best chances on stand-by

You will NOT be left stranded on a stand-by ticket – if no seat is available, you’ll take the next flight. The worst that can happen is a long wait at the airport.

What are Discount Airlines?

Discount Airlines have gathered market share during the past years especially in Europe, offering flights at a fraction of the cost that regular airlines charge. So what’s the catch? Discount airlines are promising no more than to take you from point A to point B. They fly to small airports in lesser-known towns. They permit minimal or no checked baggage. Not even water is served during the flight unless you pay for it, and the first of those airlines is already contemplating to charge for use of the washroom on board. Discount airlines are a great alternative for folks who either wanted to go to that smaller airport in the first place or who can arrange for cheap transfer to their actual destination.

Examples of discount airlines: Ryanair (Europe), JetBlue (US)

 

2. Cabin Classes and Upgrades Unless you have generous funds or your boss is paying for the flight, you are likely flying Economy, or - as it is also known - Coach. This is the most basic class of air travel. In developing countries, flying economy may mean an improvised seat with your suspenders doubling as a seatbelt or standing room among live-stock. (Not kidding!) Back to our world. Check your tickets what your flight entails. In times of cut-

backs, airlines are putting "economy" back into "economy class", and you may have to pay for food and drinks.

Premium Economy or Executive Class is basically economy with certain upgrades such as:

Wider seats, sometimes in a separate cabin Free earphones or improved entertainment options Higher luggage allowance and priority baggage loading and unloading Separate check-in counters and access to an airport lounge

 

Business Class is a step up from economy and usually offers wider seats, improved meal service, and free drinks. (Even so, airlines still have the right to refuse alcoholic beverage service to intoxicated travelers - business class or not!)

Business class tickets are more flexible when it comes to changes.Also, many airlines offer separate check-in counters and access to an airport lounge as part of the increased ticket price. On most short-distance or domestic flights, Business Class is the only upgrade available.

 

First Class or International First Class depends on the airline for inclusions. On domestic flights, First Class may be closer to Business Class, while transcontinental flights may provide you with your own bed in the First Class cabin, plus around-the-clock gourmet meal service.

First class tickets allow for the greatest flexibility when it comes to changes. International First Class is usually quite expensive.

 

Upgrades on Charter Flights are comparable to Premium Economy and usually offer the following perks above regular service:

Wider seats in a separate cabin, with easier access to washrooms Improved meal service and free alcoholic drinks Higher baggage allowance and priority baggage loading and unloading Separate check-in counters and priority boarding

Note that certain inclusions such as separate check-in or priority boarding may or may not be honored in the destination country.

 

Is a class upgrade worth the extra money 

That's a question only you can decide. Fees for cabin class upgrades can vary considerably but may be money well spent for special occasions.

Read the fine print carefully and see if the included upgrades are of value to you. Additional baggage allowances may be worth a lot of money for chronic over-packers, but free alcoholic beverages are not if you don't drink.

 

What people say about upgrades 

"For our wedding anniversary we wanted to splurge. First Class is way out of our range, but we bought business class tickets to Paris on Air France. Mind you, we watched the sales on the internet closely until business class was half price. Was it worth the extra money? Yes it was. Would we do it again? Probably not - unless it’s a special occasion and we have the funds." "We once got to fly First Class because the airline messed up and overbooked. It was heaven. If we had the money, that would be the way to fly! There is absolutely no comparison to coach." "We always book Club Class when we fly Air Transat (Canadian charter airline). It is tremendous value. But you have to book it early because it gets sold out very quickly." "We once invested in Business Class because my wife wanted to know what it's like. Well it was a lot of money for nothing. Yes it was nice, but we'd rather spend the money on a better hotel. An upgrade for a whole week beats the upgrade for a few hours in the air, doesn't it?" "Cubana's Tropical Class was both great and a bust. On the way down to Cuba, we loved the service and wider seats. On the way back, the flight crew hassled us because we were the only couple in first class. They wanted to sleep and resented having us there. We never had a food tray slammed before us with such disdain." "Our trick is to buy the upgrade at the airport shortly before departure. Many airlines are happy to sell you a higher class ticket for a fraction of the real price instead of letting it sit empty. We don't always succeed but it never hurts to ask!" "If the so-called upgrade in a charter flight is only a few bucks more, beware. It usually means just wider seats, and you may find yourself sitting with overweight people and families with screaming toddlers. Not worth the money."

"Paying a bit more for seats at the front of the aircraft in a charter flight is worth the money for 2 reasons, even if you don’t get any other perks: access to the washroom in front, and first off the plane. If you're lucky, your luggage has priority unloading. In some cases, this may mean up to an hour of waiting time at customs and immigration saved."

 

3. Overbooked Flights – How can this happen? Airlines overbook intentionally because every full seat contributes to their bottom line. They sell more tickets than they have seats on the aircraft, hoping not all seats will be claimed. And indeed: many flights end up with free seats because people miss their connection, cannot travel for a variety of reasons, or make last-minute changes if their ticket permits it. These unclaimed seats are then filled with other passengers holding a ticket - with the intent to send the plane on its

way at maximum capacity. Unfortunately, the amount of unclaimed seats does not always match the number of oversold tickets, and it happens that airlines have to refuse ticket-holders their seat.  

What happens in those cases?

Asking for volunteers – Passengers are asked to give up their seat and take another flight, in exchange for perks such as a free ticket, an upgrade, or a food voucher. Compensation – Type and amount of compensation are not standardized internationally and vary greatly. However, if your flight is overbooked in Europe, you have extended rights to compensation for flight cancellations and overbooking. Corresponding information is available at the airline counter and/or at the gate. Upgrading passengers – If it’s your lucky day, you will be upgraded to a seat in business or first class free of charge. Upgrade cabins are rarely oversold, firstly to keep their well-healed clientele happy, and secondly to have additional capacity for overbooked seats. Please note: It is up to the airline to decide which perks you receive in the higher cabin class if your upgrade was free. In general, you’ll get the same meal and beverage service as the other

paying passengers, but you are not entitled to other inclusions such as higher baggage allowance. The airline only owes you a seat and the services your original ticket includes.

 

How does the airline decide who gets a seat, an upgrade, or the shaft?

Reputable airlines will do their best to accommodate passengers as best as they can when dealing with overbooked flights.

However, certain passengers will be given priority over others:

Passengers who have paid full price or a higher price for their ticket than discount ticket holders Members of frequent flyer programs or similar flight/travel clubs Passengers who need to catch a connecting flight, especially transatlantic flights Personal circumstances such as ailing people or families with children

 

4. Flight Connections & Transfers If you book your own itinerary and have to take two or more flights to arrive at your destination, make sure to allow for sufficient transfer time at the airport. Transfer times at airports used to be 1 hour for domestic and 2 hours for international flights. However, with increased security procedures, you need to add one hour for each unless the airport is very small. In European airports, transfer between transatlantic flights and flights within the European Community may take up to 1-1/2 hours. This does not include shopping at the duty-free!   IMPORTANT:

Security regulations about liquids purchased at the airport vary and may even depend on the mood of the customs agent. Although the friendly sales clerk at the duty free store assures you that you can carry these goods through the next airport’s security check, you are running the risk that liquids in excess of 100ml will be confiscated.

 

Left Turn: Delays, Changes, Denied Boarding… 

Can they do that?

 

Example 1: You arrive at the airport and learn that your flight has been delayed for 4 hours. You receive a food voucher for your inconvenience.When the 4 hours are over, you learn at the gate that it will be another 2 hours before you can board. No other compensation is offered.

Example 2: Your infant daughter is registered in your passport and has traveled with you this way to several countries. When you try to board a flight to Cuba for a 1-week package vacation, the airline refuses to let you board because your infant daughter needs her own passport. You lose the entire vacation without a refund. Example 3: You arrive at the airport and check the departure time table. To your horror, you discover that your flight has already departed – 2 hours before the time shown on the ticket! The agent at the airline counter tells you that you need to buy a new ticket. Example 4: After a 2-week holiday you arrive at the airport, eager to get back home so you can cure your diarrhea and sleep in your own bed. After you’ve boarded the aircraft, the captain announces that you will make a stop in another country - adding 3 hours to your journey home. Example 5: The shuttle bus from your airport hotel broke down and the passengers had to wait for a new bus to arrive, which took about 1 hour. You arrive at the airport with 30 minutes to spare until departure. The boarding agent refuses to let you check in: your ticket has been marked as a no-show and your seat given to a stand-by passenger.

 

Can Airlines do that? 

Example 1: Yes. In the Terms and Conditions for your flight, airlines refuse any responsibility for reasons beyond their control. No matter how the delay is caused – weather, mechanical failure, busy airports: it would be hard to prove that the airline is somehow responsible.

Example 2: Yes. As heart-breaking as this situation is: the traveler is responsible to ascertain any requirements regarding proper documentation. The airline is not allowed to board passengers without the required documents, so it’s not always their call to make. This also applies to expiry dates of passports where requirements vary greatly.

Example 3: Yes. The passenger is responsible for checking flight times 12 to 24 hours before departure. Normally, the travel agent who sold the ticket or the airline will call if departures are that early – but they are not obligated to do so.

Example 4: Yes. Airlines – especially charter airlines – are entitled to merge flights, change routes, and add additional stops to increase economic viability of their flights.

Example 5: Yes. It is the passenger’s responsibility to allow sufficient time for check-in. Many airlines recommend that passengers arrive at the airport 3 hours before departure for international flights. You may want to check the airline’s policy on when they close their check-in counters. This may vary from 20 minutes to 1 hour before departure.
