Do you have any tips for my flight to Aklavik?
If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints for a trouble-free start to your getaway in Aklavik. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, your important medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Aklavik?
Being organized before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Aklavik easy and painless. Here are some handy hints for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
