Do you have any tips for my flight to Sugarloaf?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a ball in Sugarloaf in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries 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 restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and choose shoes that are flat and easy to remove.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sugarloaf?
Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Sugarloaf quick and painless. Here are some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned.
  • Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight 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 on board.
