Do you have any tips for my flight to Burlington?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. Check out these handy travel tips that will help get your Burlington vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack your passport, travel documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and opt for flat, slightly roomy footwear like slip-ons.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and 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 Burlington?
The simple answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Burlington, here you come:

  • Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
