We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and exploring Heppner in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your main priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
- Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
