Do you have any tips for my flight to Oakland?

  • What you pack in your carry-on baggage can make the difference between a comfortable flight, and a restless one. Start with the most important things, such as a valid ID (like your passport) and your travel documents. Once they’re safely packed, put in any medications you might need. Next, think about comfort factor. A neck pillow, earphones and the latest bestseller will help the hours fly by while you’re in the air.
  • There’s also a list of prohibited items for your hand luggage which differs between carriers. Generally, avoid bringing anything sharp, explosive or flammable. This includes things like pocket knives, razor blades, flares and aerosol cans. Sports equipment like baseball bats, ski poles and objects considered weapons, such as batons and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft aren’t designed for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable, loose-fitting clothing and bring a pullover as it can get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are ideal for longer journeys.
  • The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg stretches while seated can help prevent this developing. Wearing compression tights or socks also helps to lessen your risk.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Oakland?
The key to getting a cheap, spur-of-the-moment flight to Oakland is to be flexible. You can boost your chances of scoring an awesome deal if you’re not tied to particular airlines, flight times and travel dates. Also compare the prices of flying into and out of nearby airports if that’s a possibility.
Where can I learn more about changing or canceling my flight to Oakland?
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.
