TIDBITS 4 TRAVEL TIPS

This tidbit is 4 Travel Tips

Here are some tips to make your airport experience hassle-free:

  •  Arrive at the airport early.  Even if your flight is delayed.  The airlines may make other arrangements to make sure that flight takes off on time.   You may have to pay a penalty if you tell them ” I checked and the flight was delayed”.
  •  Wear comfortable shoes that can easily be removed during the security screening process.
  • Weigh your checked and carry-on bags prior to arrival to ensure that all your baggage are within the weight and size allowances.
  • Ensure that you have the required travel documents readily available at all times to present to the security officials and to agents upon request.  If you are traveling international you may need special documentation.
  • Remember, carrying sharp or other dangerous objects that can be used as weapons are strictly prohibited aboard the aircraft. Both your checked and carry-on baggage will be screened. Pack appropriately to avoid any inconvenience at the security checkpoints.  If you are unsure you can always check the TSA website for complete information.
  • http://www.tsa.gov.
  • Please be aware of items that may cause delays during the security screening process. Jewelry, belt buckles, keys, phones, pagers, etc. should be placed in carry-on baggage and not left on your person.
  • Film should be packed in carry-on baggage as equipment used to screen checked baggage may damage undeveloped film.
  • Gifts in your carry-on baggage should not be wrapped as they may be opened during the security screening process.
  • Arrive at the gate early to await the boarding of your flight.

Please have a safe and wonderful trip.
