How to survive the flight to La Crosse?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be speeding through the airport and having a ball in La Crosse in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a great experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you’ll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and don’t forget to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
  • A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to La Crosse?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach security. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to La Crosse in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
  • Can’t travel without your favourite perfume? No 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-lock bag, it’s fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
