Making the Most of Your Flight Delay

Nobody likes to be stuck at the airport

If you often travel for leisure or business, you most likely have been here: you look up at the flight board and realize that your flight has been delayed. Suddenly, the walls of the terminal you are in seem to come closer and confine you.  “I am stuck here.” Nobody likes to be stuck at the airport, especially when they have business or personal matters waiting on them.

While trying to make the most of your delay, you may find yourself going a bit insane or stir-crazy. Have no fear; We have compiled a list of ways to abate those delay blues and keep your morale up, even when stuck in a terminal with only McDonald's to eat.

Call an airport car service...

Best Rated LAX airport limo services

If you have a really long delay, being stuck in the airport can become too much to handle. You should make the most of the situation at hand and get out of there! Are you saying “But I have no way to get around?”... “Not true!”, we insist. We provide weary travelers from all over with a fun thing called "car service". You see, our car service is an escape that provides a traveler with a luxury vehicle, a driver who knows the city that he or she drives, and a comfortable backseat where your headaches can be soothed.

The difference between an LA limo service and a taxi, or Uber you ask? Well, professional car services are dependable and punctual, which makes all the difference when you are stressed about your flight schedule. So take a break from the airport, relieve yourself of the claustrophobia, and have a private car service pick you up and take you around. You’ll feel the weight of "being stuck" slip away as you make your way out of the airport’s, clutches. That alone is worth every extra penny a car service costs. 

Catch up on business...

If you’re traveling on business, this one is a bit
more obvious. Yet we understand that finding a seat or workspace quiet enough to get any work done can seem a bit impossible, especially when just dealt the blow that you are stuck such a long time at the airport terminal. Using your delay to catch up on business can actually improve the rest of your time. How? 

Well, think about it. A good deal of work travelers are behind on their work, meaning they arrive at their destination with lots of overdue work and a lot of things to finish before they can relax, lay down, and rest in their high-end (we hope) hotel room. So if you really think of the benefits to your travel if you get a majority of or just part of your workload done before you even boarded your already delayed flight. We here at our LA limo service are thinking of the extra time to get a massage, play some golf, see a movie, or have a cocktail. Having that extra time can help make your “work” trip feel more like vacation time, and who doesn’t want a little vacation time paid for by your company? You can now see a delayed flight in a more positive light…

However you decide to deal with your delay, don’t forget to make the most of any time you have on your travels. Take advantage of a limousine in Los Angeles and take a trip around the city where you’re stranded. Use your extra hours in the airport to knock out some serious parts of your workload. Both of these options help relieve the stress of being an airport hostage. They can help you pass the time in a more constructive way than eating greasy fries at McDonald's and being uncomfortable in a plastic hard chair.
