Do you have any tips for my flight to Watkins Glen?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Watkins Glen could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've compiled some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and opt for slightly roomy, flat shoes like sneakers.
  • You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your feet and legs moving.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Watkins Glen?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Watkins Glen a breeze. Read through our handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

  • Your passport and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, must also be separately scanned.
  • Can't travel without your favourite hand and nail cream? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
