Do you have any tips for my flight to Bideford?
If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a comfortable start to your time in Bideford. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bideford?
As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Bideford before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

  • Keep your boarding pass and passport someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
