Do you have any tips for my flight to Lincoln?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these handy tips that will help get your Lincoln holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • First of all, pack in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and go for shoes that are flat and easy to remove.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Lincoln?
It's simple — be prepared. We've put together some top tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Lincoln, here you come:
  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • 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 suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
