Do you have any tips for my flight to Dawson City?
If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a comfortable start to your vacation in Dawson City. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be easy if you take the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and choose shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to take on and off.
  • You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Dawson City?
The answer is simple — be organized. We've rounded up some useful tips for an easy trip through security. Look out Dawson City, here you come:

  • Be sure to have your travel documents and passport at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Traveling with your favorite cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
