    Do you have any tips for my flight to Chalk River?

    No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organized. Follow these handy travel tips that will get your Chalk River vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

    • First things first, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

    Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

    • While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

    What to wear on a flight:

    • Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
    • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

    How to get through airport security fast when flying to Chalk River?

    Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Chalk River a breeze. Read through our handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

    • Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
    • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
    • For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
    • Travelling with a new hand and nail cream? No 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, you're allowed to bring it with you on board.
    • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
    • Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
