How to survive the flight to Bates City?
If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a trouble-free start to your time in Bates City.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack your passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight can be as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The good news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and wander the aisles as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bates City?
It's all about being organized. We've compiled some helpful hints for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Bates City, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Want to bring along your favorite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
