Do you have any tips for my flight to Amherst?
Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Amherst could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack your passport, important documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and opt for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to remove.
  • It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Amherst?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Amherst in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
