Do you have any tips for my flight to Russell?

  • What you pack in your hand luggage can mean the difference between a comfortable flight, and one that leaves you drained. Start with the must-haves, such as a valid ID (like your passport) and your travel documents. Once they’re packed, throw in any medications you might need. Next? Consider your comfort factor. Earplugs, a neck pillow and a book will help the hours fly by while you’re cruising at altitude.
  • There’s a lengthy list of items you should not pack in your carry-on baggage too. Sharps, flammables and explosives are strictly prohibited in the cabin — they can include knives, razor blades, flares and aerosol cans. Some sporting equipment, like tennis rackets and baseball bats, also generally can’t go in your hand luggage. Your airline’s website will have all the details about what you can and can’t take on board.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Opt for comfort instead of fashion when flying. Dress in layers and wear natural fabrics as they allow air and moisture to pass through and keep you cool. Cabins can get colder on longer flights, so pack a pullover and always wear sneakers or enclosed shoes.
  • The condition known as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It’s the result of blood clotting caused by poor circulation and inactivity. Strolling up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg stretches while seated can prevent it developing. Wearing compression socks or tights also helps to lessen your risk.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Russell?
Securing a cheap, last-minute flight to Russell is as simple as being flexible with your travel plans. Keep your options open with your choice of airline, flight times and travel dates. If your destination has a few airports, compare the prices of jetting into each of them for the best deal on your airfare.
Where can I learn more about changing or canceling my flight to Russell?
Most flights are free to cancel within 24 hours of making the reservation. However, some flights are non-refundable, and you may receive a flight credit from the airline to use for a future booking. For more information, please visit our Customer Service Portal.
