Do you have any tips for my flight to Key West?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and having a blast in Key West before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • First, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination 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 hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
  • Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Key West?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Key West in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:
  • Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • Your coat, belt, 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 your turn draws near.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
  • Travelling with a new perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
