How to survive the flight to Ottawa?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you’ll be speeding through airport security and enjoying Ottawa before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a comfortable experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any vital medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to take a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ottawa?
The trick is to be prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Ottawa in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually 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 in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items can’t be taken on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
