How to survive the flight to Rethymno?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Rethymno could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We’ve rounded up some handy travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s simple — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are always good options. If you intend to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you’ll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural fibers and remember to pack a jacket just in case you get cold. Pick well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and wander the aisles as much as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Rethymno?
It’s all about being prepared. We’ve compiled some useful tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Rethymno, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels 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 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • It’s also likely that you’ll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
