We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and having a ball in Galena in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • It's simple — first, put in your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Galena?
The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Galena, here you come:
  • Keep your passport and boarding pass at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
  • Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
