Do you have any tips for my flight to Imperial Beach?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and having a blast in Imperial Beach in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The secret to having a great travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Imperial Beach?
It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Imperial Beach, here you come:
  • Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
  • Travelling with a new cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • 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.
  • Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
