Do you have any tips for my flight to Newcastle?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Newcastle could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. Below are some handy hints that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and go for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to take on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Newcastle?
The trick is to be organised before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Newcastle in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
