Do you have any tips for my flight to Sanford?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and discovering Sanford in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Air travel can be a pleasure if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find a spot in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Your priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
  • Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To reduce 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 Sanford?
Being prepared before your flight will make your getaway to Sanford a piece of cake. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:
  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
