Do you have any tips for my flight to Palo Alto?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've planned ahead. Check out these top travel tips that will help get your Palo Alto holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by donning layers, and pick flat, enclosed footwear like slip-ons.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Palo Alto?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Palo Alto in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

  • Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID handy. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
