Do you have any tips for my flight to Oakland?
Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Oakland could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. Here are some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Oakland?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Oakland easy and painless. Read through our useful tips for a swift journey through security:

  • Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • 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 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
