How to survive the flight to Mountain Center?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Mountain Center escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Traveling on a plane can be easy if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find a spot in your bag for your phone and charger, any daily medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and pack a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Always opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your luggage.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Mountain Center?
The secret is to be well prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Mountain Center in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

  • Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Traveling with a new perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
