Do you have any tips for my flight to Alten?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and exploring Alten in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Air travel can be easy if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and opt for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to remove.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Alten?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Alten in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:
  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Can't travel without your favourite perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
