How to survive the flight to Elkader?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Elkader could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've put together some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to mitigate your risk. Wear compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Elkader?
The trick is to be prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Elkader in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

  • First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
  • Want to bring along your favourite cologne? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
