Do you have any tips for my flight to Riverside?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. We've made a list of top travel tips that will get your Riverside escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Your main priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
  • Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Riverside?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Riverside a pleasure. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:
  • First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. 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 in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
