Do you have any tips for my flight to Sumter?
If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks for a hassle-free start to your getaway in Sumter. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The secret to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.
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 flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Your priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sumter?
The simple answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some top tips for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Sumter, here you come:
  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • All electronic gadgets, 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 must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
