Do you have any tips for my flight to Metlakatla?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Metlakatla vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm 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 luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and go for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to take on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Metlakatla?
As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Metlakatla in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

  • Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Traveling with your favorite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you on board.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
