Do you have any tips for my flight to Elm Creek?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Elm Creek could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some useful tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and pick slightly roomy, flat shoes like slip-ons.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Elm Creek?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Elm Creek quick and painless. Check out our handy tips for a swift journey through security:

  • Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
