Do you have any tips for my flight to Carson?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Carson could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be easy if you pack the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, any daily medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and wear flat, closed-toe shoes like sneakers.
  • Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Carson?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Carson a pleasure. Check out our handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Traveling with a new cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
