Do you have any tips for my flight to Columbus?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a blast in Columbus in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to pull on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Columbus?
It's all about being organised. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Look out Columbus, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
