Question 10

How to survive the flight to Medicine Hat?

Accepted Answer

Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Medicine Hat could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

First of all, put in your passport, important documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

Comfort really should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a sensible way to go.
It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to minimize your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Medicine Hat?

Accepted Answer

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Medicine Hat a breeze. Below are some top tips for a swift journey through security:

Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
Travelling with your favourite cologne? 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 bring it with you in your carry-on.
Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
