Do you have any tips for my flight to Oakland?
If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks for a pain-free start to your getaway in Oakland. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some great options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also restricted.

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 pick easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
  • Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower 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 Oakland?
It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Oakland, here you come:

  • Have your passport and boarding pass close by. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
  • Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
