How to survive the flight to Blackpool?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Blackpool 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:

  • Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you’ll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

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 liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of your plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and don’t forget to bring a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Blackpool?
The secret is to be well prepared before you get to security. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Blackpool in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

  • Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don’t hold up the line.
  • Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There’s a chance you’ll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
