Do you have any tips for my flight to Des Plaines?
If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a worry-free start to your time in Des Plaines. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and go for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to remove.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Des Plaines?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Des Plaines before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

  • Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the line.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
