How to survive the flight to Wrightsville Beach?
If you’re not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there’s no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks for a trouble-free start to your time in Wrightsville Beach.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want some basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your highest priority when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet are quite common. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy work well.
  • A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights may also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Wrightsville Beach?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Wrightsville Beach a breeze. Read through our useful tips for a speedy journey through security:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them handy so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
