    Check Flight Status
    Call your airline’s toll-free number to re-confirm your flight schedule.

    Allow Extra Time
    With the increase in travelers during the holidays, it is advisable to arrive at the airport at least two hours prior to your flight.

    Tag Every Bag
    Make sure that all checked and carry-on bags are tagged with identification information. Also include tags inside each bag in the event the outside tag falls off. You can save time by filling out luggage tags before arriving at the airport.

    Leave gifts unwrapped
    They may need to be opened for security inspection.

    Limit Carry-Ons
    Carry-on baggage is limited to one carry-on bag plus one personal item. Personal items include laptops, purses, backpacks, briefcases, or camera cases. Place valuables and prescriptions in your carry-on bag.

    Boarding Pass and Identification
    You must have your boarding pass and a photo ID to gain access to the departure gate when accessing the security checkpoint. Your boarding pass can either be issued at the ticket counter or via an airline check-in kiosk.

    Film
    Place all undeveloped film and cameras with film in your carry-on bag. The screening equipment for checked baggage may damage undeveloped film.
