How to survive the flight to Story City?
If you’re not prepared, air travel can be daunting. But there’s no need to panic. Follow these useful tips for a trouble-free start to your getaway in Story City.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don’t forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have sharp or pointed objects lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, 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:

  • The narrow aisles of a plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and don’t forget to bring a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks or tights can also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Story City?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach security. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Story City in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

  • Have your travel documents and ID close by. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
