Do you have any tips for my flight to Santa Clara?
If you're not prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips for a worry-free start to your time in Santa Clara. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Your main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick slip-on footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Santa Clara?
The secret is to be well organised before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Santa Clara in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:
  • Have your ID and travel documents within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. 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 keep it with you in your carry-on.
  • It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
