Do you have any tips for my flight to Anticosti Island?

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your holiday in Anticosti Island. What to pack in your hand luggage:

Travelling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

Your main priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Anticosti Island?

The trick is to be well organised before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Anticosti Island in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
