How to survive the flight to Gold River?
No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you’ve planned ahead. We’ve made a list of essential travel tips that will get your Gold River escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be easy if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, don’t forget to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. 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 treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of a plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and bring a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good choice.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Gold River?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We’ve compiled some top tips for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Gold River, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Traveling with a new perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy 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, put them in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
