Tips for short-haul flights to Keele

Maximize space by using mini toiletries, wearing your bulkiest clothing, and coordinating outfits effectively. This strategy also helps you bypass the wait at baggage claim once you arrive.
  • Bring your own entertainment—many short-haul flights may lack in-flight entertainment options. Before your journey, download TV shows, movies, music, or podcasts, and consider bringing a book to keep yourself entertained. Remember to fully charge your devices prior to boarding.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—even for short or domestic flights, it's advisable to arrive at least 1.5 to 2 hours before departure, taking into account traffic and security wait times.
  • Bring your own snacks and water—pack snacks and a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated and save money at the airport.

  • Select your seat in advance—for longer flights, choosing your seat is essential for comfort. Full-service airlines often allow free seat selection once online check-in opens, typically 24–48 hours before your flight. Some airlines may provide the option to select seats even earlier.
  • Arrive at the airport in plenty of time—plan to arrive at least 3 hours before departure for international flights to accommodate check-in, security, and immigration procedures.
  • Relax at the airport—if you find yourself with extra time, take the opportunity to explore the shops, grab a coffee, or unwind at the gate or in a departure lounge if you have access. Airport Wi-Fi is generally free and available.
  • Adjust to the new time zone mid-flight—begin syncing your body clock by changing your watch and modifying your sleep schedule to align with your destination's time zone. Aim to sleep or stay awake on the flight according to the local time at your arrival destination to help minimize jet lag.
