Do you have any tips for my flight to Orpington?
If you're not prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a trouble-free start to your getaway in Orpington. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
  • Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Orpington?
A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your getaway to Orpington a breeze. We've rounded up some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

  • Keep your passport and boarding pass easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
  • Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
