What if I am flying with my Cricut?

You can fly with your Cricut in your carry on, BUT you must remove the blade and put that in checked luggage. If you are not bringing checked luggage we will have blades provided to use.

What do I tell the TSA if they ask what a Cricut is?

Most officers are understanding if you just explain. We suggest removing your blade and checking it on your luggage or get one at the convention. The Cricut is a printer like machine that can make decals, cards and other exciting projects! It does not contain an internal power source. If they have any concerns you can have them call their supervisor.

What is the recommended attire for the conference?

Wear something comfortable so you can easily craft and great shoes for sure.

I am new to all this. Will there be help available setting up my machine for the first time?

If you need help setting up your machine for the first time, please let us know at registration and we will get a coordinator to help you. Please do not wait until class to raise this concern as it will cause delays for others who are ready to work during the allotted class period. Coordinators will be available in classrooms to help with other types of problems that occur.
