Do you have any tips for my flight to Charleston?

  • What you pack in your carry-on baggage can be the difference between a comfortable flight, and one that leaves you tired. Start with the most important stuff, like your passport (or a valid ID) and your travel documents. Once they’re safely packed, put in any medications you might need. Next? It’s all about comfort. Earplugs, a neck pillow and a novel will help the time fly by while you’re in the air.
  • Remember that there’s also a list of prohibited items for your hand luggage which can differ between carriers. As a general rule, avoid bringing anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like razor blades, knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, tennis rackets and objects considered weapons, such as batons and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Whether traveling long or short-haul, layering up is key to flying comfortably. Wear loose, breathable fabrics that will keep you fresh and pack a pullover to cope with any in-flight cabin temperature variations. Keep your feet happy in a pair of flat shoes or sneakers.
  • Lessen your risk of developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition which can be caused by sitting for long periods of time, by regularly walking around the cabin. Otherwise, do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat. If you’re at higher risk of developing DVT, consider wearing compression socks or tights.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Charleston?
Finding a cheap, last-minute flight to Charleston is as simple as having some flexibility with your travel plans. Have some wiggle room with your choice of carrier, travel dates and flight times. If your destination has a few airports, compare the prices of flying into each of them for the best airfare deals.
