How to survive the flight to Ithaca?
If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints for a pain-free start to your getaway in Ithaca.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, pack in your passport, important documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items 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 restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your highest priority when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a sensible way to go.
  • Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to lower your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ithaca?
It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a speedy trip through security. Look out Ithaca, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along 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're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually 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 in the cabin.
