How to survive the flight to Columbus?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Columbus could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural-fibre clothing and don’t forget to pack a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
  • The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a pair of compression tights or socks is also recommended.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Columbus?
The secret is to be organised before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Columbus in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

  • Be sure to have your travel documents and ID close by. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to show at security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp or pointed items can’t be taken on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
