Do you have any tips for my flight to South Shields?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and seeing the best of South Shields in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a few magazines. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
  • Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to South Shields?
It's simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out South Shields, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready to show.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
