Do you have any tips for my flight to Stamford?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a blast in Stamford before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • It's simple — first, put in your passport, important documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some great options. If you hope to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and wear slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Stamford?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Stamford easy and painless. Below are some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:
  • Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • It's also possible you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
