Man who has taken HUNDREDS of flights shares overlooked airline perk every traveler should take advantage of
An avid traveler who has taken hundreds of flights has shared the often overlooked airline perk that every flier should take advantage of.
Dennis Bunnik - CEO for the travel company Bunnik Tours - has flown more than 700 times over the last decade.
Over the course of his travels, he has learned a lot about how to make the experience more enjoyable.
And according to the travel expert, there's one thing that he always takes advantage of when he flies that others often forget about.
During an interview with Business Insider, he explained that many airlines give passengers complimentary pajamas during long-haul or overnight flights.
At first, he said he had no interest in wearing them, and didn't deem it necessary to change into different clothes upon boarding.
But after flying hundreds of times, he revealed that the free pajamas are actually his favorite perk, and vital in making flights much more relaxing.
'There are a number of airlines that offer them, and they're fantastic,' he gushed to BI recently.
'One, it keeps your clothes crease-free and clean. [And two], it helps you relax.'
Dennis explained switching into the comfy clothes 'switches his mindset' so he can catch some much-needed Zs when flying.
The free PJs usually consist of a breezy pair of sweat pants and a T-shirt.
According to One Mile at a Time, many airlines like United and Virgin Atlantic offer Business Class passengers free pajamas for international flights.
However, the publication noted that they're not always automatically given out so you sometimes have to request them.
Dennis' revelation comes after a millionaire shared five essential things he does at the airport before every flight - tips that he claimed can save the average traveler thousands.
Mark Tilbury, from the UK, is a self-made, self-proclaimed millionaire, and is the CEO of Model World LTD, Century U.K. LTD and Tilbury Multi-Media LTD, as per his LinkedIn profile.
The 56-year-old businessman often shares wealth and success tips with millions of his followers on social media - from how to build multiple streams of income to investment advice for young adults.

In a recent video uploaded to his Youtube channel, the entrepreneur highlighted a series of hacks to help save the average plane passenger money at the airport.
He recommend taking photos of your luggage, packing an empty water bottle with you when you fly, putting an Apple AirTag in your luggage, and emailing yourself important documents.
He also pointed out that passengers who use a credit card can be granted free access to airport lounges, where they can 'load up on food' before a flight.
Some credit cards provide free or discounted lounge access, potentially saving on entry fees and in-lounge spending, so it's worth checking with your bank for more opportunities to spend less while enjoying premium amenities at the airport.
