Do you have any tips for my flight to Stratford?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. We've compiled a list of handy hints that will help get your Stratford escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
  • It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Stratford?
A little pre-planning before your flight will make your getaway to Stratford a pleasure. Check out our handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Be sure to have your ID and travel documents easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
