How to survive the flight to Alden?
If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your time in Alden.What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items 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 often lies in your clothing choices. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander through the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Alden?
The trick is to be organised before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Alden in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:
  • Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass handy. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
