Do you have any tips for my flight to Alpena?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and exploring Alpena in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, pack your passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some great options. If you intend to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and go for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to take on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Alpena?
The trick is to be well organized before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Alpena in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

  • Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
