How to survive the flight to Cottonwood?
If you’re poorly prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But don’t hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a pain-free start to your holiday in Cottonwood.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a magazine. It’s also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and remember to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good idea.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander through the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cottonwood?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Cottonwood quick and painless. Check out our handy hints for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass within close reach. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Travelling with a new cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • It’s also possible you’ll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
