Do you have any tips for my flight to Red Lake?
If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. 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 Red Lake. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
  • You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and wear flat, easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Red Lake?
Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Red Lake a piece of cake. We've rounded up some handy hints for a stress-free journey through security:
  • First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
  • Can't travel without your favourite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
