How to survive the flight to Salem?
If you’re not prepared, air travel can be tough. But there’s no need to panic. Follow these handy tips for a comfortable start to your holiday in Salem.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It’s also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and pack a sweater in case it gets cool. Pick a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Salem?
Being organised before you get to the airport will make your trip to Salem easy and painless. Below you’ll find some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Keep them close by.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
