Do you have any tips for my flight to California?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. We've put together a list of essential travel tips that will help get your California holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and wear flat, easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to California?
Being prepared before your flight will make your trip to California a breeze. Here are some handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
