A CLEVER mum has revealed how she saves money and gains some peace and quiet with her son ahead of a flight.
Taking to social media, the woman shared a snap of her son eating a full English breakfast at the airport as they waited for their flight.
She then explained that you can book an airport lounge without having a credit card linked to it.
The best part is if you book it in advance, you can get a meal that’s not too dissimilar to the price of four meals and drinks from Wetherspoon.
“I 100% recommend booking the lounge before you fly,” she wrote in the caption of the post of the Facebook group Holiday more; pay less.
“I don’t think the price is too different to 4 meals & drinks in Wetherspoons.
