Do you have any tips for my flight to Crested Butte?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through the airport and enjoying Crested Butte in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It's simple — first, put in your passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by layering up, and opt for flat, enclosed shoes like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Crested Butte?
The trick is to be well prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Crested Butte in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

  • Keep your travel documents and ID at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner 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-lock bag.
  • It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
