How to survive the flight to Gatlinburg?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Gatlinburg vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s easy — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you’ll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you’ll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and don’t forget to pack a jacket just in case you get cold. Pick a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your luggage.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Gatlinburg?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We’ve compiled some top tips for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Gatlinburg, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you 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 need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Can’t travel without your favorite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you on board.
  • It’s also possible you’ll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board.
