How to survive the flight to Sleaford?
No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you’ve prepared well. Check out these handy travel tips that will get your Sleaford vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a great experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you’ll want some basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don’t forget to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a sensible way to go.
  • The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sleaford?
As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you arrive at security. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Sleaford in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

  • Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don’t hold up the line.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
