My girlfriend is American and I'm Canadian. My girlfriend and I are planning a trip to Calgary AB to see my sister in law, my brother and my Nephew in Aug this year. I'm a rookie plane person and have any flown once in my life. I don't know what to expect being a canadian citizen flying out of the USA. We plan to go Aug 10-14, 2010 and fly from Cleveland with 1 layover in Denver. Is this a good idea? What is there to do in Denver? We arrive at 9:47am in Denver and don't leave Denver until 12:20pm in the afternoon.
Any tips, helpful hints, what we can do as for carry on's etc? I don't know much about flying.
Thanks
Mike
Reply to this Denver is a nice airport. I wold not leave it for that short of a layover. There are lots of shops there, including duty free to look in as you are crossing the border.
Going for that short of a time period I would try to pack so that I do not have to check my luggage. You are allowed one bag and one suitcase (not a real big suitcase). The bag must be small enough to fit under the chair infront of you so about the size of a lap top case or brief case. Your liquids must fit in a clear 1 qt zip lock bag and it is best to store them in the top of your suit case so you can pull them out at security. Wear slip on shoes, as you will have to remove your shoes to go through security.
Have fun!
