How to survive the flight to Lake Charles?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will get your Lake Charles holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of your aircraft are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and take a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea too.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk up and down the aisles as much as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Lake Charles?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Lake Charles a piece of cake. Below are some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

  • Have your passport and boarding pass at hand. They’re the first things you’ll be asked to show at security.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Travelling with a new cologne or 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, you’re permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
