How to survive the flight to Houston?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you prepare well enough. Check out these top travel tips that will get your Houston holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, don’t forget 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:

  • Double-check that you don’t have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of your aircraft are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and remember to bring a sweater as it can get quite cool in the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Houston?
It’s simple — be prepared. We’ve rounded up some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Houston, here you come:

  • First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
