Do you have any tips for my flight to Ottawa?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and enjoying Ottawa in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, pack your passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and opt for slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ottawa?
A little pre-planning before your flight will make your getaway to Ottawa quick and painless. Check out our handy hints for a swift journey past security:

  • Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume or cologne? 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 OK to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
  • Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
