Question 10

How to survive the flight to Fort Lauderdale?

Accepted Answer

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through the airport and having a ball in Fort Lauderdale in no time at all.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

The goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural fibers and take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your main luggage.
Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help lower your risk.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Fort Lauderdale?

Accepted Answer

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Fort Lauderdale a piece of cake. We've compiled some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
Can't travel without your favourite cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
There's a possibility that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
