- 2Will airlines separate us if we don't pay for seats?Booking tickets together does not guarantee you will sit side-by-side, as airlines often randomly assign separate seats during check-in. To ensure children stay with adults or partners sit together, passengers are forced to pay hundreds extra for advance seat selection on top of already expensive base fares.
- 2What can I take through airport and cruise security?It is hard to tell if specific items like Advil or alcohol are permitted in a backpack. This uncertainty leaves people worried that airport or cruise security will reject their packed bags and make them throw their belongings away.
- 2Why is my flight refund taking so long?Booking platforms often receive your refunded money from the airline but do nothing with it until you contact their support. You must manually reach out before they will actually arrange to process your payment. In other cases, the airline itself may delay your claim for weeks without providing any timeline.
