Do you have any tips for my flight to Tightwad?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. Check out these handy travel tips that will help get your Tightwad escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Flying can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to slip on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Tightwad?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Tightwad a pleasure. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:
  • Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
  • Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
