Quick Layover Tips

• Pack entertainment and snacks in your carry-on to avoid airport markup prices.

For Solo Travelers

• Voluntary bumping: Airlines often offer $200-$800+ in compensation if you volunteer to be bumped – easier to rebook one person.

For Groups

• Add 15-30 minutes ‘group tax’ to all time estimates – groups move slower through immigration and security.
• Designate a group leader to manage timing, headcount, and communication.
• Use WhatsApp or a group chat to coordinate – pin departure gate and boarding time.
• Use Splitwise to track shared expenses automatically.
• For overnight layovers, assign rotating watch shifts (2-3 hours each) to guard belongings.
