Do you have any tips for my flight to St Helens?
Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to St Helens could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletry items 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 prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and go for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to take on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to St Helens?
Being organised before you get to the airport will make your getaway to St Helens a piece of cake. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:
  • Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra 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 on board and will be confiscated.
