Print this before you fly and fold it into your passport pocket. When the layover starts, spend five minutes on the planner page ~ a layover with a shape beats a layover you just endure. The bingo card is for when the shape runs out.

This is the free sample ~ the full kit adds every page below it.

Map your layover

Five minutes at the arrival gate turns dead time into a small itinerary. Fill in the lines, then follow your own orders.

My next gate and how long it takes to walk there
Boarding time MINUS thirty minutes = my hard return time
The meal plan ~ what and where
The outlet plan ~ where I charge and for how long
One nice thing I will actually do ~ walk, window, book, nap
Water bottle filled? ~ find the fountain BEFORE you sit down
Where my passport and boarding pass live for the next few hours

Questions

Is this really free?

Yes ~ print it, use it, hand copies to the whole row. If it saves your layover, the paid kits on the downloads page are the bigger siblings.

Does it work for short layovers?

The planner page matters MORE on a short layover ~ the hard return time line is the whole game. The bingo card is for the long hauls.

Do I need anything besides a printer?

A pen. That is it ~ no app, no account, no battery. That is rather the point.
