How to survive the flight to Waukee?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Waukee could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We’ve rounded up some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.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 documents, cash and vital medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of an airplane are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and don’t forget to bring a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin on long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
  • A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks is also recommended.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Waukee?
As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Waukee in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. 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 tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
  • There’s a chance you’ll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Airlines won’t allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
