How to survive the flight to Oakland?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our insider tips and you’ll be hightailing it through the airport and exploring Oakland before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and don’t forget to pack a jacket in case it gets cool. Opt for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Oakland?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Oakland a pleasure. Check out our handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Have your travel documents and ID close by. They’re the first things you’ll be asked for by security.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Remember to remove 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 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board.
