Starting this year, REAL IDs will be REQUIRED to fly domestically. This change had been in the process for YEARS but officially went into effect in May.

These are the kinds of things you want to read up on before travel. Always know what kind of rules are being implemented with air travel to help ease the flying process. As our society continues to change, so too will these rules. That’s why it’s super important to stay in the know.

Consider Convenience

Air travel can be a pain thanks to inconveniences like long TSA line waits. That’s why you should consider convenient options that help save time and stress, even if they cost some extra cash.

Security at MCO

Purchasing security time-savers like TSA Pre-Check and Clear Plus can easily be worth the cost, thanks to all the time you’ll actually save.

If you’re traveling through Orlando, check out MCO Reserve —  a FREE service that lets you schedule a time slot to go through security before your flight while skipping the main line. You’ll need to register in advance, and can learn more about it by clicking HERE.

Pack Smarter

Traveling with checked luggage is about to get more expensive.

Southwest Planes

This year, Southwest Airlines ended its 60-year tradition of letting passengers check two bags for free, and bring a personal item and carry-on on board. So much for “Bags fly free..”, as now Southwest charges flyers for their first and second bag, making packing way more difficult.

Rapid Rewards A-List Preferred Members and customers traveling on Business Select fares still receive two free checked bags. A-list Members and other select customers also receive one free checked bag. Rapid Rewards Credit Card members can still check one bag for free.

However, everyone else will need to rely on carry-on bags or make better spatial use of one checked bag if they want to minimize spending.
