Do you have any tips for my flight to Thornton?

  • Wherever you’re going, flying can be a pleasant experience if you’re properly prepared. First of all, pack your passport (or a valid ID), travel documents and medications. Next, toss in a little extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. The latest bestseller and a tablet filled with your favorite series are good choices. If you want to nap, a neck pillow and headphones are also worth packing.
  • It also pays to check with your airline regarding what you can’t bring on board your flight. Utility knives, razor blades, swords and batons are among the prohibited items. Anything flammable, sharp or explosive is generally not allowed in your carry-on bag. Be sure to pack any sports equipment like baseball bats or tennis rackets only in your checked luggage.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane aren’t suitable for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable, loose-fitting clothing and bring a hoodie since it can get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Sneakers or enclosed, flat shoes are the best type of footwear for longer journeys.
  • Consider wearing compression socks or tights to help prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT). This blood clotting condition can be caused by prolonged periods of sitting, especially on long-haul flights. Performing leg and foot exercises in your seat or walking around the cabin will help improve your circulation.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Thornton?
