How to survive the flight to Rockwell City?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and enjoying Rockwell City in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels 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. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to pack a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Opt for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your luggage.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid 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 reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Rockwell City?
The answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Rockwell City, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Keep them close by.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
