Do you have any tips for my flight to Fairfax?
If you're not prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a trouble-free start to your holiday in Fairfax. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to remove.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Fairfax?
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 Fairfax in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:
  • First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
  • Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
  • Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
