How to survive the flight to Richmond?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Richmond could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We’ve rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, pack in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you’ll arrive feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight is often as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Most travellers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Richmond?
Being organised before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Richmond a breeze. Here are some handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
  • Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
