How to survive the flight to Ottawa?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our insider tips and you’ll be hightailing it through the airport and seeing the best of Ottawa in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are good options. If you intend to catch a few z’s, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you’ll arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your prime concern when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet can be a side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a smart option.
  • The serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks is also a wise idea.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ottawa?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Ottawa in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There’s a possibility that you’ll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
  • 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 luggage.
