Six flight attendants told Business Insider about their best travel life hacks. Most requested anonymity for fear of reprisal from their employer.

Here's what they said:

Read the fine print when buying a ticket

“It’s worth reading all the fine print in these disclaimers,” the Spirit Airlines flight attendant said. “It can save money on your carry-on luggage.”

Use Skyscanner to find the lowest rates.

“I found a lot of great deals there,” a Spirit flight attendant said of Skyscanner.

Always bring a bottle of water with you.

“I always travel with a reusable bottle,” said the Delta Air Lines flight attendant. “Every airport, at least in the US, has a place to fill up your water bottle.”

Always bring a portable charger with you

“I always travel with a portable charger,” said the Delta flight attendant. “Not all airports have chargers or outlets, or you won’t be able to get to them, and some older planes don’t have them at all, or only a few per row.”

Do not pack too much

"Make sure you don't pack too much when you travel," said a United Airlines flight attendant.

Get to the airport in advance

“Give yourself plenty of time because feeling rushed will just make your travel experience more stressful than it needs to be,” the flight attendant said.

Travel in the morning

“I encourage people to travel in the morning,” said Kevin Kane, a PSA flight steward. “The evening is when delays increase during the day.”

Bring your own entertainment

“Always bring some fun and exercise,” Kane said. “Sometimes there won’t be Wi-Fi on your plane, so it’s always a good idea to download something offline on Netflix or bring your iPad if you have one.”

Ask for another cup when serving ice

“Whenever they serve you ice, ask them to serve it with a different cup because the ice scoop is actually not very clean,” said a flight attendant for a regional airline that flies with United Airlines and American Airlines.

Do not drink hot tea or coffee.

“Don't drink coffee. Don't drink hot tea. The water is not the best,” said a flight attendant at a regional airline.

Get ready for anything

“Travel is unpredictable,” said the Alaska Airlines flight attendant. “You never know what will happen.”
