How to survive the flight to Bournemouth?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you’ve prepared well enough. Check out these handy travel tips that will help get your Bournemouth holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you’ll hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bournemouth?
The trick is to be well organised before you reach the security gate. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Bournemouth in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

  • First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Remember to remove gels and liquids 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 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • It’s also likely that you’ll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
