Do you have any tips for my flight to Richmond?
Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Richmond could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a great experience if you pack the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
  • Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Richmond?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Richmond quick and painless. Read through our handy hints for a stress-free journey past security:

  • Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Want to bring along your favourite hand cream? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you on board.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of 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 on board and will be confiscated.
