How to survive the flight to New Ulm?
We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be hightailing it through airport security and discovering New Ulm before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, pack your passport, important documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you’ll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of your aircraft are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a good choice.
  • A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to New Ulm?
A little pre-planning before your flight can make your trip to New Ulm a piece of cake. Here are some handy tips for a swift journey through security:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
  • Can’t travel without your favorite perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, it’s OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever 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, pack them in your checked luggage.
