Have your wits about you at the airport to ensure you have a hassle-free experience during check-in and boarding
Wear a jacket/ trousers with deep pockets
A jacket with plenty of pockets is useful fer carrying small accessories and item such as camera batteries and chargers, remote release and memory card holders.
Check in early
Airlines staff and passengers alike are generally in a less stressed state at the start of check in, which means you're likely to get more co-operation with your baggage.
Be ready for X-rays
Get in the queue as soon as your row is called for boarding-you will then be more likely to have enough space to stow your gear safely in the overhead compartments.
Travel anonymously
Look like a photographer and you'll become a target for opportunist thieves. Wear normal clothes and certainly not a photographer's vest. consider using a rusksack that hides its contents-Kata, Crumpler and Lowerpro all produce backpacks that don't scream 'camera inside'!!!
