How to survive the flight to Shannan?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you’ll be hightailing it through airport security and discovering Shannan before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s simple — first, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are always good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you’ll arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural-fibre clothing and don’t forget to pack a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin. Pick flat, well-fitting shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
  • Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are many ways to lower your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, stay hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Shannan?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Shannan in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

  • Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
