Do you have any tips for my flight to San Luis Obispo?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and seeing the best of San Luis Obispo in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It's easy — first, put in your passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
  • Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to San Luis Obispo?
The simple answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out San Luis Obispo, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Keep them close by.
  • 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 the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • 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 before you know it.
  • Want to bring along your favourite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
