Do you have any tips for my flight to Charleston?
Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Charleston could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are good options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
  • Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Charleston?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Charleston, here you come:

  • Keep your passport and travel documents easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favourite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
