How to survive the flight to Grinnell?
If you’re not prepared, travelling can be tough. But there’s no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a pleasant start to your holiday in Grinnell.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a good book. You’ll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a wise idea.
  • The condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks is also a wise idea.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Grinnell?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you reach the security gate. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Grinnell in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

  • Be sure to keep your passport and travel documents close by. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to present to airport security.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Can’t travel without your favourite cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger 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.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
