How to survive the flight to Altoona?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Altoona could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don’t forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your number one priority when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common occurrence. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a good idea.
  • You’ve probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to lessen your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, stay hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Altoona?
It’s simple — be prepared. We’ve rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Altoona, here you come:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don’t hold up the line.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favourite perfume or cologne? 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-close bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you on board.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors can’t be taken on board. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
