Do you have any tips for my flight to Cardiff?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and seeing the best of Cardiff in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a great travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a good read. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cardiff?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Cardiff a pleasure. Below are some handy hints for a speedy journey past security:

  • Keep your passport and travel documents handy. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
