FlightNetwork.com has put together a useful list of common mistakes people make; some of which can cost flyers hundreds of dollars. For example, the number two thing on their list is failing to check-in with the airline 24 hours prior to departing. But the FlightNetwork.com folks say I’m all wrong, noting that schedule changes are “very, very common.” If a schedule change happens within 24 hours, it’s the airline’s job to let you know. But we’re not always plugged in, and you don’t really want to rely on the kindness of strangers, do you? If you see the message, don’t press the button to book your trip again.
