Can A Registered Sex Offender Fly On A Plane

Traveling by Plane

Traveling by plane is much faster than traveling by train. It gives you additional comfort and saves your time.

Whenever you want to go somewhere by plane you should book a ticket (seat) on a flight (book a flight) to your destination for a certain date.

You may book a single, return or open return ticket. When booking a ticket you should mention what class you are going to travel: first, business or economy class. You may ask the booking clerk (travel agent) what time the coach leaves the air terminal for the airport and what is the latest time of checking-in at the airport.

Before boarding the plane you should check-in (register) your luggage at a check-in desk. Here you are required to have your luggage weighed and then a uniformed clerk (attendant) attaches a special label to it and gives you a boarding pass. There is no need to worry about your luggage any longer. It will be put into the luggage compartment of the plane. If your luggage weighs more than allowed (it has overweight), you are supposed to pay for the additional weight. Then you must go through the security check where your carry-on luggage-is checked.

Then you may wait in the departure lounge.

The announcer will announce when and at what gate your flight is boarding or he/she may announce a delay on your (light. It often happens that a delay on a flight is due to adverse weather conditions. In this case you can obtain a voucher for refreshments. These vouchers are accepted at the cafeteria and you can have your meal free of charge till you hear the announcement that your flight is boarding.
