Do you have any tips for my flight to Amherst?
Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Amherst could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be easy if you pack the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, 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 on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Amherst?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Amherst quick and painless. Check out our handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
