How to survive the flight to Merkel?
We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be hightailing it through airport security and enjoying Merkel in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It’s also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be the goal when choosing what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet are a common occurrence. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a smart option.
  • Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There’s lots you can do to lower your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Merkel?
The simple answer is — be prepared. We’ve rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Merkel, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • 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, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Sharp items like knives can’t be taken on board. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
