The attendants were a bit too curt. I had to go to the bathroom but my food tray wasn't picked up. So I nicely asked if she could dispose of my tray so I could use the restroom. Reluctantly she took it, but She made sure I knew she had to walk all the way to the back of the plane, and the inconvenience it would cause her. I offered to take it back for her, she scowled.

- You'll have to pause the tunes for a short while. Earphones and headphones need to be taken off and put in a tub for X-raying. The same goes for items such as keys and coins.
- Electronics such as laptops, cameras and phones will need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Be sure to have them within easy reach.
- When you approach the security checkpoint, you'll be asked to place all creams, gels and liquids in a separate bin for inspection. Make sure they're all stored in containers smaller than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and sealed in a clear zip-lock bag.
- Construction boots and other cumbersome shoes are typically X-rayed by security personnel. It might be wise to wear lightweight sneakers instead.
- Pack any multi-tools or other pointy items inside your checked luggage. Security won't allow these in carry-on baggage.
