How to survive the flight to Birch Bay?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be breezing through airport security and having a ball in Birch Bay in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that’ll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a magazine. You’ll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have a sharp object lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks may also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Birch Bay?
The trick is to be well prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Birch Bay in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Travelling with a new perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can’t be taken on board. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
