      Hey there, I'm assuming you're talking about this video- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fRj_cXZSrQ&t=6s
      Well, as our awesome CEO told you in this video, it is possible for anyone to get an upgrade while you are traveling via flights for long distances. There are many ways that will help you with the upgrade. We won't deny, some are based on your luck but there are other things that you can do to get a fancy upgrade. Some of the best tips are:

      1)You can ask the agent at the ticket counter
      2) Checking in early also helps
      3)You can volunteer to get 'bumped' from an overbooked flight
      4)you can request a flight attendant to provide an upgrade if there are any seats empty in the first class.

      If you are lucky then you will get an upgrade by using these tricks.

      1.5 to 2 months before college starts should be a good time to book your ticket
      This is true for all European flights

      Yes, you'll have to book a connecting flight
      Just find a flight midway between your hometown and northeastern
      Book a flight with a good enough window for an easy layover
      As a precaution, let the time between flights be 6 to 8 hours apart

      @pranay_s

      Hey Pranay,
      Gird up and start searching all the information regarding your flight and its expenses at least 5-6 months before your flight is due in order to travel smart.

      One of the most important travel tips for students is that it’s economical to book tickets on Tuesday or Wednesday. The best time to buy a cheap ticket is described to be around 3 to 5 O clock in the morning. Also, if your flight involves a transfer, such as Canada to LA, it is always wise to take these transfer flights separately to avoid accommodation problems and hours-long wait.

      @robert-ferrero

      Hey Robert,
      International student insurance policies are specifically designed for students studying abroad.

      The travel insurance provides coverage against baggage-related risks, medical expenses, stay disruption, and other travel-related issues that you may face during your trips. In some universities, getting student travel insurance may not be mandatory, but it is advisable to have it as a precautionary measure.

      Hey Aaron!

      UK has a great network of public transportation that makes traveling accessible for students. The average monthly cost for traveling in the UK comes up to around £140 per month. The most extensive network of public transportation in the UK is the tube (underground rail network). Traveling by tube can help save a lot on travel costs.

      However, the tube is not present in a lot of cities across the country. But you can access trains to travel both short and long distances. You can even purchase a ‘Young Persons Railcard‘ for £30 if you are a student at any university in the UK. The railcard lets you avail of a 30% discount on train travel across the UK, lowering your living expenses. Buses are the next best option for travel across the UK.

      If you wish to travel long distances, then you will need to avail flights or long-distance trains.
