Do you have any tips for my flight to Alta?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will get your Alta escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are good options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by layering up, and pick closed-toe, flat shoes like sneakers.
  • It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Alta?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some useful tips for an easy trip through security. Watch out Alta, here you come:

  • Have your passport and travel documents within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
