If you have to wear the big bubba belt buckle you won with your cousin for calf roping, it will probably set off the alarm. Otherwise, if the alarm goes off, it's most likely your keys or a metal pen. Place them on the tray before going through the gate. You do not have to prepare for a strip search. I've come to love our little regional airline.
Savvy travelers know they can get to almost every city Horizon serves in about an hour and a half.
There is never a need to check luggage with Horizon either, because you can check your bags at plane side. Horizon provides handy carts that you place your luggage on, right on the tarmac. When you arrive at your destination, they wheel the cart over and off you go. Horizon employees are friendly and even show a sense of humor. In the left seat, even Richer.
