  • A plane ride can be a pleasure if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach 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:

  • Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
  • You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to West Branch?
The secret is to be prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to West Branch in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There's a possibility that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
