Do you have any tips for my flight to Shader?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and discovering Shader in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and opt for closed-toe, flat shoes like slip-ons.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Shader?
It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Shader, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Sharp or pointed items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
