Do you have any tips for my flight to Gilchrist?
If you're not prepared, travelling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a stress-free start to your holiday in Gilchrist. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are some great options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Your priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
  • It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Gilchrist?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Gilchrist in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:
  • Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
