How to survive the flight to Detroit?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Detroit could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We’ve compiled some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right stuff. First of all you’ll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and something to read. Next, make room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don’t forget to bring your passport, travel papers 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 gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and matches, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your main priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes work well.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Detroit?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Detroit in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready to show.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
