  • Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Fort Providence?
Being prepared before your flight will make your getaway to Fort Providence a pleasure. Below you'll find some handy hints for a speedy journey past security:
  • Keep your boarding pass and ID close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have 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 lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
