How to survive the flight to Atherton?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Atherton could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We’ve rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. You’ll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don’t forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have a Swiss Army knife hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Atherton?
It’s all about being prepared. We’ve pulled together some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Atherton, here you come:

  • Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass handy. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to show at security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required 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 separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in 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 on board and will be confiscated.
