How to survive the flight to Thornton?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. We've put together a list of handy hints that will get your Thornton escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are good options. If you plan to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your main priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a smart option.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander through the cabin wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Thornton?
It's all about being prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Thornton, here you come:

  • Be sure to have your travel documents and ID within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
  • Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
