Question 10

How to survive the flight to Yakima?

Accepted Answer

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and exploring Yakima in no time at all.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

Flying can be easy if you've got all the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach 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:

Comfort should be your highest priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are your best bet.
A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking around the cabin and doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks may also help.

Question 11

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

Accepted Answer

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Yakima a breeze. We've rounded up some useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
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 in the cabin.
