How to survive the flight to Sterling?
We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you’ll be cruising through airport security and having a blast in Sterling in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, you’ll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you’ll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sterling?
The answer is simple — be organised. We’ve pulled together some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Sterling, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be separately scanned.
  • Can’t travel without your favourite hand and nail cream? Not a 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, you’re permitted to bring it with you on board.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
