    As a backpacker, While returning to India from Thailand, I had very less items to check in and one newly married Indian couple asked if they could check in their bag under my name because they are overweight. I let them, but now I realise How stupid I was. Could have drugs and illegal stuff in that bag.

    The term ‘overbooked flight’ that Varun used (21:06) reminded me of a great Doug Stanhope bit. Doug says that airlines need to be sued for overbooking the flights. If I sell the same car to two different people and say sorry to them and ask one of them to back out of the deal when they arrive to pick it up, I’ll probably be sued by one of them, as it’s a criminal offense. Similarly, airlines should be sued for overbooking a flight. Are they that dumb that they didn’t know there are only X number of seats on a certain flights? It’s forgery and it needs to be treated as one.

    The thing VT mentioned about tagging luggage - supremely helpful in identifying your bags on the carousel, since that is something I did for all my luggage items, check in and cabin.
    Also, getting upgrades to business/ first class is all about your conduct at the check in counter, and more often than not what your airline travel history looks like.

    My hack for regular travelers is to have a regular travel insurance. It’s much cheaper than getting it for every trip separately. Travel insurance should always be booked. You don’t want to be in a foreign country and have a legit emergency.

    Be aware of hidden cameras, if you can connect to hotel wifi and if the hidden cameras are on the same network then you can use apps like Fing which show you the list of devices on the network.
    You can also darken the room completely and then use a phone flashlight. The camera lens always reflects a little bit of light.
    Situational awareness: look around for anything or decorations that are facing the bed or bathrooms.
