Do you have any tips for my flight to Columbus?
Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Columbus could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've compiled some handy hints that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Next, find a spot in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

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 sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, 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 opt for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to pull on and off.
  • The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Columbus?
It's simple — be prepared. We've put together some useful tips for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Columbus, here you come:

  • Be sure to have your travel documents and ID handy. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
