2. A plane trip is an exhilarating experience for the
first-time flyer. Leading up to the trip, it is
important to pack properly in order to avoid
discrepancies with TSA or the frustration of
realizing that something important was forgotten
at home. With the peace of mind that all has been
taken care of, a flight can be enjoyed fully and
stress-free.
INTRODUCTION

The easiest way to make sure that something
is left behind, whether it be as minuscule
and replaceable as a toothbrush or as
important as a passport, is to wait until the
night before a voyage to pack.
Try to allow at least 24 to 48 hours for
planning and packing. Consider creating a
checklist or downloading a pre-made one in
order to keep track of what is already
packed and what is not.
DON’T WAIT UNTIL THE
LAST MINUTE

Nothing spoils the onboarding experience more
than waiting in line for extended amounts of time
to be checked by TSA only to be pulled aside
because they have found an item considered to be
a flight hazard or an excess amount of liquids in
luggage. Be sure to review the TSA’s travel
checklist carefully. This checklist describes
important details such as liquid sizes allowed in
carry-on, prohibited items, and the forms of
identification that are accepted at the TSA
checkpoints. Be sure to arrive at least 2 hours
before the flight’s departure in order to avoid
missing a flight.
REVIEW TSA GUIDELINES

5. In a sea of black suitcases, it is important to make
sure luggage stands out or is labeled to avoid any
mix-ups. This goes for carry-on bags as well, as
some airlines do not have enough overhead space
and will store smaller bags in a separate
compartment. Consider getting labels and putting
a name, number, and other discernible details on
them just in case the luggage gets misplaced. It also
helps to purchase suitcases with patterns or colors
that will assist in setting them apart.
