Do you have any tips for my flight to Utica?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and exploring Utica in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • It's easy — first, pack your passport, important documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
  • You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Utica?
It's simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Utica, here you come:
  • Keep your boarding pass and ID close by. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Travelling with your favourite hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
