How to survive the flight to Elgin?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Elgin could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We’ve put together some tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, don’t forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have sharp or pointed objects hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight often lies in your choice of clothing. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
  • Travelling with a new hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, it’s OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Sharp or pointed items can’t be taken on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
