How to survive the flight to Urbandale?
If you’re not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there’s no need to worry. Follow these handy hints for a comfortable start to your time in Urbandale.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It’s also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and remember to bring a pullover just in case you get chilly. Always opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your main luggage.
  • Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There’s lots you can do to lower your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Urbandale?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Urbandale quick and painless. Read through our top tips for a speedy journey through security:

  • 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 within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
