How to survive the flight to The Settlement?
If you’re poorly prepared, travelling can be challenging. But don’t hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a hassle-free start to your holiday in The Settlement.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you’ve got all the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don’t forget to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Most travellers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There’s plenty you can do to lower your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and get your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to The Settlement?
The answer is — be prepared. We’ve pulled together some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out The Settlement, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • 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 suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board.
