How to survive the flight to Traverse City?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Traverse City could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don’t forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have a sharp object lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to take a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Traverse City?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Traverse City a breeze. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
