Do you have any tips for my flight to Athens?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. Check out these handy tips that will help get your Athens holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and go for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to remove.
  • Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Athens?
It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some top tips for an easy trip through security. Watch out Athens, here you come:

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. 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 larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
