Do you have any tips for my flight to Brainerd?

  • What you pack in your carry-on luggage can make the difference between a comfortable flight, and one you’d prefer to forget. Start with the essentials, such as your passport (or a valid ID) and your travel documents. Once they’re packed, put in any medications you might need. Next? It’s all about the comfort factor. Earphones, a quality neck pillow and a book will help the hours fly by while you’re soaring above the clouds.
  • There’s a lengthy list of items you shouldn’t pack in your carry-on too. Explosives, sharps and flammables are strictly prohibited in the cabin — they often include aerosol cans, flares, box cutters and razor blades. Some sporting equipment, like baseball bats and tennis rackets, also generally can’t go in your hand luggage. Your airline’s website will have a full list of what you can and can’t take on board.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft aren’t the place for a fashion show. Layer up with comfy, loose-fitting clothing and pack a pullover as it can get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Sneakers or other closed-toe shoes are best for longer journeys.
  • Consider wearing compression tights or socks to help prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT). This condition is a result of blood clotting that can be caused by extended periods of sitting, especially on long-haul journeys. Performing leg and foot stretches in your seat or walking around the cabin are great ways to improve your circulation.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Brainerd?
If you want to snag a cheap, spur-of-the-moment flight to Brainerd, flexibility is key. If you can, have some wiggle room with the dates you can fly. It also helps to have a bit of flexibility with your departure and arrival points, choice of carrier, flight times and possible stops or layovers.
Where can I learn more about changing or canceling my flight to Brainerd?
Most flights are free to cancel within 24 hours of making the reservation. However, some flights are non-refundable, and you may receive a flight credit from the airline to use for a future booking. For more information, please visit our Customer Service Portal.
