8. What to do if you are detained at the airport late at night?

If you don't want your flight to be delayed, take the first flight out of the airport. This information is available from the airport or airline. If you book a flight with a connection, remember that airport staff should have enough time to carry your luggage from one plane to another. Choose flights with at least an hour between connections to reduce the risk of luggage loss. If you still miss your flight or need to spend the night at the airport for some other reason, there are special services that can help you find the ideal place to sleep at virtually all major airports in the world. They can also tell you where medical services, power outlets, shower rooms and children's rooms are located.
