Do you have any tips for my flight to Council Bluffs?
If you're not prepared, travelling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a trouble-free start to your vacation in Council Bluffs. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Council Bluffs?
A little pre-planning before your flight will make your getaway to Council Bluffs a pleasure. Read through our handy hints for a speedy journey past security:

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the line.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • There's a good chance you'll need 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 safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
