How to survive the flight to Rapidan?
If you're not prepared, air travel can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a comfortable start to your time in Rapidan.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to take a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin on long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good idea.
  • A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a pair of compression tights or socks can also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Rapidan?
The answer is --- be prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Look out Rapidan, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
  • It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
