How to survive the flight to East St. Louis?
No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you’ve planned ahead. Follow these handy hints that will get your East St. Louis escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It’s also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your prime concern when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet can be a side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a sensible way to go.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, 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 East St. Louis?
Being organized before your flight will make your getaway to East St. Louis a pleasure. We’ve compiled some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp or pointed items are not allowed on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
