How to survive the flight to Bristol?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Bristol could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We’ve compiled some handy hints that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack in your passport, important documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you’ll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you’ll hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for changes in temperature 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 checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long distances is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bristol?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Bristol quick and painless. We’ve compiled some handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Keep your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to present to airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
