In the past, stress about flying overseas usually involved worrying about the flight itself, or whether you'd forgotten to pack some essential item. These days navigating airport security is more of an ordeal than the flight itself, you can get through the airport quickly and easily, is it still possible to get to your destination on time and with all your bags. Air travel is a fact of life for many of us in the profession. Whether it is once a year for an annual conference, or more than once a week to supervise satellite libraries in different cities, the need for air travel is almost unavoidable. Some institutions require that employees use a centralized travel service, many law librarians are left on their own in their search for airline tickets with just a vague promise that they will be reimbursed up to a certain amount.
