Do you have any tips for my flight to Manhattan?
If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a hassle-free start to your time in Manhattan. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Travelling on a plane can be easy if you pack the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, 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 restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming 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 Manhattan?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Manhattan in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

  • Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will be required 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, tablet and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, 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-lock bag.
  • There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
