How to survive the flight to Boston?

Accepted Answer

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. We've made a list of handy travel tips that will get your Boston holiday started on the right note.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

Air travel can be a great experience if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

Comfort really should be your priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes work well.
Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to mitigate your risk. Wear compression socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Boston?

Accepted Answer

It's all about being organised. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Boston, here you come:

Have your ID and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
