How to survive the flight to Ellis?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Ellis could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We’ve rounded up some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a hassle-free flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring items that’ll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. You’ll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, don’t forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.

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 hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to pack a jacket in case you get cold. Always go with well-fitting, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ellis?
The trick is to be well organised before you get to security. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Ellis in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

  • Keep your travel documents and ID close by. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume? No problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, it’s OK to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Knives and other sharp items can’t be taken on board. They’ll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
