Do you have any tips for my flight to Bucharest?
If you're not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a comfortable start to your getaway in Bucharest. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a short nap, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by donning layers, and wear flat, enclosed footwear like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bucharest?
The answer is simple — be organised. We've put together some tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Bucharest, here you come:
  • Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
  • Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
