Do you have any tips for my flight to Sterling?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well organized. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Sterling vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sterling?
It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Watch out Sterling, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
