How to survive the flight to Thornhill?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. Follow these essential travel tips that will get your Thornhill vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a good read. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of your aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good idea.
  • The serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a good pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Thornhill?
The trick is to be well prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Thornhill in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

  • Keep your ID and boarding pass within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favorite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
