Question 10

How to survive the flight to Fort McMurray?

Accepted Answer

Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Fort McMurray could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

First things first, pack your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

The aisles of your aircraft are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfortable clothing and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a sensible choice.
Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to minimize your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

Question 11

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

Accepted Answer

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Fort McMurray in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional 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 luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
