Do you have any tips for my flight to Carrington?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and having a blast in Carrington before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It's simple — first, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and pick shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to take on and off.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Carrington?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Carrington in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
  • Want to bring along your favourite perfume? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
