How to survive the flight to Independence?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be hightailing it through the airport and seeing the best of Independence in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s easy — first, put in your passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you’ll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are good options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you’ll hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and bring a sweater in case you get cold. Always go with well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your main luggage.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the good news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Independence?
Being prepared before your flight can make your getaway to Independence a pleasure. We’ve compiled some handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

  • Keep your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Travelling with a new perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • There’s a chance you’ll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • 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 baggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
