How to survive the flight to Alton?
Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Alton could be completely painless or it could go on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to take a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin during longer flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of flying long-haul is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Alton?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for an easy trip through security. Watch out Alton, here you come:

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned.
  • Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
