How to survive the flight to Shafter?
If you're not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips for a comfortable start to your holiday in Shafter.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, natural-fibre clothing and take a jacket in case it gets cool in the cabin. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your luggage.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Shafter?
Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Shafter a pleasure. We've rounded up some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

  • Have your passport and travel documents within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
