How to survive the flight to Columbus?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Columbus could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. Below are some handy hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack in your passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
  • The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Columbus?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Columbus easy and painless. Below you’ll find some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

  • Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
