Do you have any tips for my flight to Long Beach?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and having a blast in Long Beach in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your bag for your phone and charger, any daily medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, 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 Long Beach?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Long Beach quick and painless. Below are some handy hints for a stress-free journey past security:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
  • There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
