Do you have any tips for my flight to Hamburg?
If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a comfortable start to your time in Hamburg. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and opt for flat, closed-toe shoes like slip-ons.
  • You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Hamburg?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Hamburg a breeze. We've compiled some top tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
