How to survive the flight to Portland?
If you’re not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there’s no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks for a trouble-free start to your holiday in Portland.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It’s also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, don’t forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight can be as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
  • A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Portland?
The secret is to be organised before you get to the security gate. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Portland in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

  • Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass handy. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to present to airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, it’s fine to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can’t be taken on board. They’ll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
