How to survive the flight to Gretna?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you’ll be zooming through airport security and having a ball in Gretna in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It’s also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don’t forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your prime concern when picking what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet can be a side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes work well.
  • A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights is also a wise idea.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Gretna?
A little pre-planning before your flight can make your getaway to Gretna a piece of cake. Below are some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

  • Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, 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.
  • The right choice of footwear 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.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
