How to survive the flight to Leicester?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Leicester could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We’ve compiled some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you’ll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander through the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Leicester?
Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your trip to Leicester easy and painless. We’ve compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
