How to survive the flight to Durham?
If you’re poorly prepared, travelling can be daunting. But there’s no need to worry. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a stress-free start to your getaway in Durham.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are good options. If you intend to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a good choice.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Durham?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you arrive at airport security. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Durham in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

  • Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be separately scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
