In the TikTok post, which has accumulated a staggering 1.1 million views, Sturrus shares six different hacks people can use when abroad.

One of these happens to be putting a single shoe in your safe, along with any other valuables.

Although this may seem completely bizarre, it actually makes sense.

Strurrus explains that by doing this you will never forget to check your safe – unless you want to walk around with one shoe on.

Hundreds are now taking to the comments and praising the flight attendant for her clever tips and tricks.

While a third user comments: “One of the most useful videos on here.”

“Clever and useful,” somebody else writes.

While she also reveals that you can use any card to power the electricity in your hotel room – not just the room cards.

However, some people are taking to the comments and disputing this particular tip.

One viewer insists: “Sorry… the card thing does not work on most places now. The easy way is to get a second card when you check in.”

In agreement, another adds: “The keycard thing is only for old European hotels. I think the world has moved on with chip cards.”

Strurrus isn’t the only flight attendant going viral for sharing handy tips and hacks.

Flight attendant Tommy Cimato is also sharing useful information with his followers, with him most recently revealing why you shouldn’t wear shorts on a plane.

He says that you can never be too sure how clean things are, so it’s best to make as little contact as possible with any surfaces.

“Don’t, or try not to wear shorts when you’re on an aeroplane,” he says.

“It’s the same thing as the window, you never know how clean it’s gonna be, so if you have pants, you’re gonna have less germs.”
