There鈥檚 nothing quite like a flight cancellation and long delays around the holidays to frazzle even the most seasoned traveler. If you do plan to travel this holiday season, try to avoid airports with high rates of cancellations and delays. If you鈥檝e already booked a flight flying into or out of one of the worst airports on our list, don鈥檛 despair! Here are a few tips you can use before you start your trip:

• Do your research so you won鈥檛 be scrambling if your flight is canceled. Check your airline鈥檚 weather-related change policies so you鈥檒l have all the facts if you need to reschedule your flight.

• Sign up for flight status notifications to stay up-to-date through text, app pop-ups or email.

• Keep your airline鈥檚 toll-free numbers handy so you can reschedule right away if your flight gets canceled鈥攊t鈥檚 often faster than waiting in line.

• Many airlines are responsive on Twitter as well, so you may be able to reach customer service representatives faster via that route.

• Note the number of a local hotel or download a hotel finder app in case you鈥檙e stuck overnight and need to book a room fast.

• If you鈥檙e likely to face delays, think ahead to make the stay a bit more cozy. Remember to bring that extra snack or scope out dining options. If you鈥檙e delayed for a long time, treat yourself to spa services such as a massage or facial. Or you can always settle in with a good book, magazine or TV and movie-streaming app to pass the time. If you find yourself dozing off, make sure to set multiple wake-up alarms so you don鈥檛 miss your flight when it鈥檚 finally time to board.
