How to survive the flight to Amherst?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you’ve prepared well enough. Check out these essential travel tips that will help get your Amherst escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to be prepared. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help pass the time, like your laptop or a magazine. You’ll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, don’t forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your prime concern when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are your best bet.
  • It’s likely you’ve heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There’s plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, stay hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Amherst?
The trick is to be prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Amherst in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, 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.
  • All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There’s a possibility that you’ll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in 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 on board and will be confiscated.
