How to survive the flight to Columbus?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Columbus could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We’ve compiled some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a good read. It’s also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, don’t forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Columbus?
The secret is to be well prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Columbus in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

  • Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport someplace easily accessible. They’re the first things you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Want to bring along your favourite perfume? Not a problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you on board.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines won’t allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
