Do you have any tips for my flight to Amherst?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a blast in Amherst in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are always good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Amherst?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organized before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Amherst in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

  • First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Travelling with a new hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
