How to survive the flight to Swansboro?
We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be speeding through airport security and exploring Swansboro in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, put in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of your aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and take a sweater as it can get quite cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
  • The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Swansboro?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Swansboro a piece of cake. Below are some handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Don’t forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
