There’s a certain thrill with the journey to the airport. The early morning alarm and hurried journey can be a uniquely exciting part of any trip, although getting to the terminal could also pose its own challenges for anxious flyers.
However, this anxiety might be alleviated with an enlightening travel hack revealed by a TikTok user.
Whilst most passengers keep hold of their physical boarding pass, others rely solely on their phone for all necessary travel information. The user revealed how with one simple trick, you can access all your relevant data at the push of a button.
In a recent video, TikTok user @kaansanity claimed: “Another iPhone trick I guarantee you didn’t know about.”
He then added: “Here’s a cool travel hack, next time you’re travelling, text yourself your airline and flight number, then tap on it and hit preview flight.”
According to the user, this manoeuvre allows all flight details to appear directly on your phone – meaning there’s no need to repeatedly check airport screens. If your flight happens to be delayed, this method will let you know instantly.
It even informs the passenger which luggage carousel they need to go to upon landing.
He concluded: “The best part is you can copy the code to send to your friends and family so they can track your flight as well.”
His video was well-received, amassing 33,800 likes and shared thousands of times. One commenter jokingly wrote: “I don’t even know how to text myself.” While another praised the travel guru: “Omg smart.”
In response, one user exclaimed: “It works I’m at the airport right now.”
Another chimed in with a simple: “Pretty cool.”
Yet, some were sceptical about its success rate, one disgruntled user admitted: “Doesn’t work for me,” whereas another proposed a more conventional approach: “Why don’t you get the app for the airline?”
So, give this trick a little whirl on your next flight….
