How to survive the flight to Sterling?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be speeding through the airport and discovering Sterling before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a comfortable experience if you’ve got all the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want a few toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and pack a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your luggage.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The good news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sterling?
The secret is to be well organised before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Sterling in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Keep them close by.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic devices 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 perfume? Not a problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, it’s fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
