Do you have any tips for my flight to Great Western?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through the airport and having a blast in Great Western before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items 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 aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and choose shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Great Western?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Great Western before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
