Do you have any tips for my flight to Canterbury?
If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your getaway in Canterbury. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Canterbury?
It's easy — be prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Canterbury, here you come:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite hand cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
