How to survive the flight to Carmel?
If you’re not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there’s no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints for a stress-free start to your time in Carmel.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you’ll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you’ll arrive at your destination 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 lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to pack a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your main luggage.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help reduce this risk.

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

  • Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, it’s fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
