🎁 Holiday travel is here, with it delays and crowded airports.😫 Instead of frustration and stress, why not use this time to your advantage 🤔, with a smile and being human? 😁 Remember when networking on planes was a thing? Now, everyone seems to be in their own little world. 🙈 But think about it: you have hours of potential connection time just waiting to be tapped into! 💡 I've personally made some game-changing connections on planes – deals closed, friendships formed, and stories for days! 🤯 So ditch the noise-canceling headphones, put on a friendly face, and see what happens. ✨ Here are a few tips to make the most of your in-flight networking: ✈️ Start with a simple hello: A warm greeting can work wonders. 🗺️ Find common ground: Maybe it's a shared destination or a book you both love. 🧳 Be respectful of their time: Not everyone is up for a chat, and that's okay. 🤝 Exchange info strategically: If the conversation flows, connect on LinkedIn, electronically, or old school swap business cards. You never know who you might meet at 30,000 feet! 😉

Love this perspective! ✈️ Some of my best connections happened in unexpected places, including flights. A simple hello can open doors to incredible opportunities. Thanks for the reminder to stay open and approachable, even at 30,000 feet. 🌟 Who knows, the next game-changing conversation could be just a seat away!
