How to survive the flight to Essen?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Essen could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a good book. It’s also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
  • The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

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

  • Keep your passport and travel documents easily accessible. They’re the first things you’ll be asked for by security.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
