Do you have any tips for my flight to Wood River?

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will help get your Wood River holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

A plane trip can be a great experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and wear easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your lower limbs often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Wood River?

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Wood River a breeze. We've compiled some handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
Can't travel without your favourite hand and nail 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-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
