Do you have any tips for my flight to Independence?
Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Independence could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It's easy — first, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are good options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Independence?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Independence in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

  • Keep your ID and travel documents easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
