We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and discovering Foster City before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by layering up, and pick flat, closed-toe footwear like slip-ons.
Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Foster City?

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Foster City a breeze. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
Want to bring along your favourite cologne? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
