How to survive the flight to Big Bend?
If you’re not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there’s no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pain-free start to your time in Big Bend.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. You’ll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and remember to bring a sweater just in case you get cold. Always opt for roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your luggage.
  • A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a good pair of compression socks is also a wise idea.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Big Bend?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We’ve rounded up some top tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Big Bend, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner 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-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
