Do you have any tips for my flight to Nikiski?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. Follow these top travel tips that will get your Nikiski vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Nikiski?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Nikiski easy and painless. Check out our handy tips for a swift journey through security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
