How to survive the flight to Detroit?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a ball in Detroit before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, put in your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are good options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight often lies in your clothing choices. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Detroit?
The secret is to be organised before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Detroit in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

  • Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Can't travel without your favourite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
  • Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
