How to survive the flight to Columbus?
If you’re poorly prepared, travelling can be testing. But there’s no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a trouble-free start to your holiday in Columbus.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It’s also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your prime concern when deciding what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a smart option.
  • It’s likely you’ve heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to lower your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Columbus?
The answer is — be prepared. We’ve put together some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Columbus, here you come:

  • First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • It’s also possible you’ll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board.
