Do you have any tips for my flight to Southport?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Southport could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've compiled some handy hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are some great options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Southport?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Southport in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

  • Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Sharp items like knives are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
