Eight Things To Do While Waiting at the Airport




You checked in online and traffic was light. You arrived at the airport ahead of schedule and now you have lots of time kill while waiting for your flight. 

You don't have to die of boredom before you board. Here are things you can do while waiting:

Write a Bucket-list

I'm pretty sure that traveling to Boracay is more fun and exciting if you already have a list of extreme Boracay activities you want to try. Waiting for your flight will give you plenty of time to list different activities worth-trying on your vacation, such as cliff-diving, kite surfing, or scuba diving. 

Go on Facebook or Twitter

Most airports airports offer free Wi-Fi access to passengers. Whether you're on your way to the island or leaving the paradise and killing time at the Boracay airport, going on Facebook or Twitter is a surefire way to kill time. Post pictures to let your friends know about your trip. 

Watch a Movie

When's the best time to catch up on your favorite series or watch your favorite flicks? While you're waiting at the Boracay airport for your flight home. Before leaving for your vacation in Boracay, be sure to download some movies or episodes you can watch on your free time. 

A trip to Boracay can leave you happy and exhausted. Take time to be quiet and recharge at the airport in the company of your favorite series or movie. 

Read a Book

Many upcoming movies this year are book adaptations. It's not too late to read those before they hit the theaters.Also, it's always a good way to kill extra time. Waiting is tiring and irritating, but for well-traveled bookworms, it's an opportunity to read a few pages or even finish an entire chapter.

Practice and Improve Social Skills

The Boracay Airport is filled with different types of travelers. Take it as an opportunity to expand your network. Make friends with the person waiting beside you. Who knows, you may find a new travel buddy and a new friend. 

Try People-watching

People-watching is a fun activity if you don't do it in a creepy way. You know what I mean. Need to have more fashion sense? Take note of the way other people dress. Thinking of buying a new gadget? Look around you to find out which products are popular among travelers.You'll never know what you'll learn.

Eat

You'll find different types of restaurants in airports. If you're a foodie, this is your chance to try something new. Not a foodie? No problem. Waiting can make you hungry. Visit a coffee or pastry shop and have a snack while waiting for your flight. 

Walk around

Walking is an exercise you can do just about anywhere. Get your blood flowing, while avoiding boredom, by walking around the airport. Buy a few more pasalubongs for your family and friends or find a spot to watch airplanes land and take off.  

Waiting in airports doesn't have to be boring. Find something to do and you'll be surprise at how fast time can fly.
