How to survive the flight to Birmingham?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you’ll be speeding through the airport and having a ball in Birmingham in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you’ll arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight often lies in your choice of clothing. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
  • A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks may also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Birmingham?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach security. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Birmingham in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • There’s a possibility that you’ll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
