Question 8

How to survive the flight to Amherst?

Accepted Answer

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through the airport and exploring Amherst before you know it.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

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 carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
The serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights can also help.

Question 9

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Amherst?

Accepted Answer

Being organised before your flight will help make your trip to Amherst easy and painless. We've compiled some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
