Do you have any tips for my flight to Heraklion?

  • Wherever you’re traveling, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you’re prepared. First, pack your passport, travel documents and medications. Next, throw in some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. The latest bestseller and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you’re hoping to get some sleep, a blow-up neck pillow and earplugs are also worth squeezing in.
  • There’s a lengthy list of items you should not pack in your carry-on bag too. Sharps, explosives and flammables are strictly prohibited in the cabin — they can include razor blades, box cutters, flares and aerosol cans. Some sporting equipment, like tennis rackets and baseball bats, also generally can’t go in your hand luggage. Visit your airline’s website for details about what you can and can’t bring on board.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort rather than fashion when flying. Dress in layers and wear natural fabrics as they allow moisture and air to pass through and keep you cool. Cabins can get colder on longer journeys, so pack a hoodie or similar and always wear sneakers or enclosed shoes.
  • The condition known as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting caused by inactivity and poor circulation. Wandering up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg stretches while seated can prevent it developing. Wearing compression tights or socks can also help to lower your risk.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Heraklion?
Getting a cheap, last-minute flight to Heraklion is as easy as having some flexibility with your travel plans. Have some leeway with your travel dates, flight times and choice of airline. If your destination has a few airports, compare the prices of flying into each of them for the best deal on your airfare.
Where can I learn more about changing or canceling my flight to Heraklion?
Most flights are free to cancel within 24 hours of making the reservation. However, some flights are non-refundable, and you may receive a flight credit from the airline to use for a future booking. For more information, please visit our Customer Service Portal.
