Do you have any tips for my flight to Gaithersburg?
If you're not prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your getaway in Gaithersburg. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and opt for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to slip on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Gaithersburg?
The secret is to be organized before you get to security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Gaithersburg in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

  • Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass handy. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
