Travel Tip: Airport Concierge

Locations in this article:  London, England Los Angeles, CA

If you want to fly like a VIP, hiring an airport concierge service can make the travel experience smoother and more streamlined. But is it worth it?

The way these guys work is that they help expedite the check-in process at the airport–from the curb to the gate–so all you have to do is show up.

The Los Angeles-based Airport Concierge Experts offers this service at more than 50 airports. That includes curbside greeting, boarding passes that are printed and ready to go, and a personal escort you through the priority security lane and into the VIP lounge.

London’s Heathrow Airport has airport concierges that you can book for a departure, arrival or transfer.

Luxury travel provider Abercrombie and Kent launched its own service, A&K Airport Concierge to walk you through the airport process.

Now, is it necessary? Of course not. But if you have special needs, a little help goes a long way.

Whether you’re traveling with an elderly passenger or children, have a medical condition, or if you’re worried about minor traveling on their own, this is the kind of service that can really navigate the process.
