Question 10

Do you have any tips for my flight to Richmond?

Accepted Answer

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips for a stress-free start to your vacation in Richmond. What to pack in your hand luggage:

A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and go for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to pull on and off.
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Richmond?

Accepted Answer

The answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Richmond, here you come:

Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
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 suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
