Do you have any tips for my flight to Madison?
If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your holiday in Madison. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Travelling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Madison?
The answer is simple — be organised. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Madison, here you come:

  • Be sure to have your travel documents and passport easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no greater 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 a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
