Do you have any tips for my flight to San Francisco?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these handy tips that will get your San Francisco escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a great flight experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and pick shoes that are closed-toe, 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 San Francisco?
It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out San Francisco, here you come:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
