Travel Right

When you factor in long security lines and luggage restrictions, holiday air travel can be frustrating. Tuck these helpful tips in your carry-on to avoid Thanksgiving and Christmas travel hang-ups.

• When flying with gifts, shop for unbreakable, suitcase-sized items for ease in transport. And hold off wrapping them until you arrive at your destination; security personnel will want to know what’s inside.

• Brand your baggage with a colorful tag or band to avoid snatching the wrong suitcase, and include contact information inside. To simplify family travel, color-code luggage tags with one shade or pattern.

• To protect online banking accounts, do not log into unsecured wireless Internet networks. It is best to use wireless connections only for non-sensitive activity like personal e-mail or news. If you must log into accounts or use password-protected sites, put security settings on high alert and only use secure systems recommended by the airport or your personal provider.

• Stop tears and tantrums by packing a small gift for your child.
