How to survive the flight to Ellicott City?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you’ve prepared well enough. Follow these handy hints that will get your Ellicott City escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, pack your passport, travel 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 some fantastic options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you’ll hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your highest priority when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy work well.
  • Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, stay hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ellicott City?
Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Ellicott City a pleasure. We’ve compiled some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

  • Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass within close reach. They’re the first things you’ll be asked for by airport security.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • There’s a chance you’ll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
