Do you have any tips for my flight to Manchester?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. Check out these handy hints that will help get your Manchester escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to pull on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Manchester?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Manchester quick and painless. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

  • Be sure to keep your passport and travel documents within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • 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 heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
