I be a drivin! Also rooming with and :3

Yey!! :D

Driving would probably be cheaper

Nah I know that, but I don't want to run the risk of my car breaking down, plus I *really* don't want to have to be in my car for 12 hours or so when my arm and driving leg have been bothering me lately. It's a trade-off. A little more money, but a lot less fuss.

Get good and liquored up before you get on the plane. I hate flying. :(

lol I'm not much of a drinker, but I don't think the flight'll be too bad. xP

Wear shoes you can easily take off for security checks, and pants that don't need a belt. Read the TSA website for what you can carry on board since there's size restrictions for bottled products and the like.

Other than that, enjoy your trip!

Ooh, I totally forgot about shoe things. I have plenty of slip-ons, so that would work. And I shall do that. :D Thank you.

You usually get 1 carry-on luggage and 1 personal item (like a purse or backpack). These you take on the plane and store in the overhead bins or under the seat. Put stuff you'll want access to in these (like a laptop in the backpack).
The rest you have to check-in; these bags get stowed in the plane's cargo hold for you to retrieve at baggage claim. Don't put fragile things in checked-in bags.

Your suit will probably take up an entire bag, and since you'll probably have another bag for normal clothes and stuff, I'd say to check-in the bag with your fursuit, and carry-on your normal clothes bag. (Unless your normal clothes bag is bigger; actually, I'd say to check-in the bigger bag and carry-on the smaller one. A smaller bag is easier to haul up to the overhead bins!)

Make sure to have ID and your boarding pass. I like to use e-boarding passes; I can just pull it up on my phone to scan.

At the gate right before they board, I like to stand near the line instead of sitting in the chairs. That way as soon as they call your group number, you're right there at the line. (The sooner you board, the better, as it'll be easier to find space in the overhead bins.)

Other than that, enjoy the flight!

Thank you! I don't have a laptop, but I'll probably bring my 3DS or something and my kindle and keep that in my backpack. :3

I'm not sure which will take up more space, but I have somewhat an idea that my clothes bag will be bigger. I'm a big sized person, and I will be having like 5 days worth of clothes, hah.

its not pronounced loch, its lichh. Take it from a south african that can speak some afrikaans

Ah I thought it was more of schwa sounds (the upside-down e), kind of a mix between an o, a u, and an i...

I LOVE flying, but the take off an be a little rough if your not used to it. BRING GUM, chew it on the take off and decent. Otherwise, the attendants and staff will help you with questions and such, and its just fine to check whatever baggage you need to. Make sure that the suit box is secure though.

Have fun and see ya at AC

Ooh okay, you'll be there? :D Nice!

Gum is a good idea, though. Thank you. :)
