Do you have any tips for my flight to Waukegan?
If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a pleasant start to your holiday in Waukegan. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • First, pack your passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and wear flat, enclosed shoes like slip-ons.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Waukegan?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Waukegan a piece of cake. Below are some top tips for a speedy journey through security:
  • Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the line.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner 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-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
