How to survive the flight to Richmond?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. We’ve compiled a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Richmond escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, put in your passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you’ll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural fibers and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets cool in the cabin. Pick flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Richmond?
The trick is to be well prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Richmond in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
