Do you have any tips for my flight to Longwood?
If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be daunting. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your time in Longwood. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and wear slightly roomy, flat footwear like sneakers.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Longwood?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Longwood in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:
  • Keep your passport and travel documents within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned.
  • Travelling with a new cologne or perfume? 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, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
