How to survive the flight to Washington?
If you're not prepared, travelling can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a pain-free start to your time in Washington.What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:
  • The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and pack a cardigan as it can get chilly in the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • Most travellers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to lower your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Washington?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Washington a breeze. We've rounded up some handy tips for a swift journey through security:
  • Have your passport and boarding pass close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned.
  • Can't travel without your favourite hand cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
