How to survive the flight to Yellowknife?
If you’re poorly prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But there’s no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks for a hassle-free start to your holiday in Yellowknife.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your highest priority when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are your best bet.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The great news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as much as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Yellowknife?
Being organised before your flight will help make your trip to Yellowknife easy and painless. Below are some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

  • Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned.
  • Travelling with a new hand cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, it’s OK to bring with you on board.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp items are not allowed on board. They’ll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
