Do you have any tips for my flight to Columbus?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through airport security and discovering Columbus in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a pleasure if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Columbus?
The answer is simple — be organised. We've put together some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Columbus, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
