How to survive the flight to Atenas?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be zooming through airport security and having a ball in Atenas in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a pleasure if you carry the right things. Firstly, you’ll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your phone and charger, your medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you 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 for it.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Atenas?
It’s all about being organised. We’ve rounded up some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Atenas, here you come:

  • Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID someplace easily accessible. They’re the first things you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
