Do you have any tips for my flight to Altoona?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Altoona could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, put in your passport, travel docs, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Altoona?
A little pre-planning before your flight can make your trip to Altoona quick and painless. Below you'll find some handy hints for a speedy journey past security:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. 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 your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in 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.
