How to survive the flight to Athens?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will get your Athens holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a pleasure if you've got all the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fibre clothing and bring a sweater in case it gets cool in the cabin. Opt for roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked luggage.
  • The condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks is also recommended.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Athens?
The trick is to be organised before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Athens before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
