How to survive the flight to Thompson?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. Follow these essential travel tips that will get your Thompson escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. You’ll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don’t forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare 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 guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight often lies in your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Thompson?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Thompson quick and painless. Check out our useful tips for a swift journey through security:

  • Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
