How to survive the flight to Elaia?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Elaia escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find a spot in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your main priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are your best bet.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Elaia?
Being organised before your flight will help make your trip to Elaia easy and painless. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • 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-close bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
