Do you have any tips for my flight to St. Simons Island?
If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a comfortable start to your holiday in St. Simons Island. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • It's easy — first, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and pick shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to slip on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to St. Simons Island?
It's all about being organised. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a speedy trip through security. Watch out St. Simons Island, here you come:
  • Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • 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.
