How to survive the flight to Merrillville?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Merrillville could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a great experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you’ll want some toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and bring a cardigan in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Merrillville?
It’s all about being prepared. We’ve compiled some top tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Merrillville, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
  • There’s a possibility that you’ll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
