Do you have any tips for my flight to Bakersfield?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of top travel tips that will get your Bakersfield holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and opt for flat, easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bakersfield?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Bakersfield in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

  • First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
