How to survive the flight to Southport?
No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you’re well organised. Check out these handy travel tips that will help get your Southport holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help lower your risk.

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

  • Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
  • Travelling with a new perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, it’s OK to bring with you on board.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren’t.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
