How to survive the flight to Red Lake?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you’re well prepared. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will get your Red Lake escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a good book. You’ll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight can be as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left for other occasions. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Red Lake?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you reach airport security. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Red Lake in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you on board.
  • There’s a possibility that you’ll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
