Do you have any tips for my flight to Rainbow?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and enjoying Rainbow in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, put in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some great options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your top priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Rainbow?
It's all about being prepared. We've rounded up some top tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Rainbow, here you come:

  • Be sure to have your passport and travel documents close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
