How to survive the flight to Preston?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Preston could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, pack your passport, important documents, wallet and vital medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have a sharp object lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
  • The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk up and down the aisles wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Preston?
The secret is to be prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Preston in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

  • Keep your boarding pass and passport at hand. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked for by security.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines won’t allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
