How to survive the flight to Mackinaw?
If you’re not prepared, air travel can be tough. But don’t hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a comfortable start to your time in Mackinaw.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s simple — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you’ll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you’ll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your number one priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good idea.
  • The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Mackinaw?
The secret is to be prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Mackinaw in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

  • Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
