Do you have any tips for my flight to Calgary?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through the airport and exploring Calgary in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and opt for flat, enclosed footwear like slip-ons.
  • The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Calgary?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Calgary before you know it. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.

Calgary Flights

Calgary is a modern, welcoming city, with a lot of charm and a lingering pioneer spirit. Though it is the largest city in Alberta, its population density is far below many other international cities, so you can expect plenty of room to breathe and enjoy the hot tourist spots. Calgary has a lot to offer the curious traveller, from great shopping venues to eclectic restaurants, and more.

During its temperate summer season, Calgary’s national parks provide excellent hiking, camping, and mountain biking opportunities. The Glenmore Reservoir in particular is the place to go for sailing, kayaking, and canoeing fun. Even in the heart of the frigid winter months, tourists can hit the slopes at Canada Olympic Park, the site of the 1988 Winter Olympics. The slopes provide great runs for skiers and snowboarders, and you can even try your hand at the luge or bobsled.

Best Time to Travel to Calgary

Peak Season:

The best time to buy your plane tickets to Calgary is June through August, when the weather warms up. The temperatures generally linger around 20 degrees Celsius, making the weather comfortable, but not scorching. It also is known to rain during this time, so pack an umbrella to be on the safe side.

Shoulder Season:

Hotel and tour prices tend to go down in April and October, so scheduling your holiday for these months could be a smart way to save money while still avoiding Calgary’s chilly winters. You’re likely to experience temperatures between 10 and 15 degrees Celsius during these months.

Off Season:

The snow, ice, and freezing gales come to visit Calgary between November and March. You’ll be able to find cheap flights to Calgary during the winter, and tourist sites will certainly be less crowded. This is also the best time to ski and snowboard for those who are looking to carve up the slopes.

Calgary Airport and Transfer Information

Calgary International Airport (YYC)

Distance: 16.2 km north of city centre

International and domestic flights to Calgary land at YYC, which has only one terminal made up of four concourses. From the airport, you have plenty of options to get into the city. One option is to call up your hotel and see if they offer a free shuttle service. If courtesy shuttles aren’t offered, the fastest way out of the airport is with a paid shuttle or a taxi. To save money, take the Calgary transit bus. Hiring a car with us is always an option, but take care driving through Calgary in the winter if you aren’t used to icy road conditions!
