How to survive the flight to Fort Simpson?
No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you’ve planned ahead. We’ve compiled a list of handy hints that will help get your Fort Simpson escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a good book. It’s also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don’t forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have a Swiss Army knife lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up in breathable clothing and bring a cardigan in case it gets cool in the cabin. Pick a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Fort Simpson?
It’s simple — be prepared. We’ve put together some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Fort Simpson, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready to show.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item 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-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
