How to survive the flight to Bristol?
No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you’re prepared. We’ve put together a list of top travel tips that will help get your Bristol escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, leave space in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be the goal when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a good idea.
  • It’s likely you’ve heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There’s lots you can do to lower your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bristol?
Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Bristol easy and painless. Here are some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Keep your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to present to security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
