How to survive the flight to Hillcrest?
If you’re poorly prepared, air travel can be daunting. But there’s no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a worry-free start to your getaway in Hillcrest.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you’ll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, don’t forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and remember to take a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks may also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Hillcrest?
The trick is to be organised before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Hillcrest in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

  • Keep your passport and boarding pass handy. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favourite hand cream? 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 keep it with you in your carry-on.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in 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 and will be confiscated.
