How to survive the flight to Athens?
We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be speeding through airport security and having a blast in Athens in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a stress-free experience if you’ve got all the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and don’t forget to pack a jacket in case it gets cool. Always opt for roomy, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your checked baggage.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Athens?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Athens quick and painless. We’ve compiled some useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

  • First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them handy so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume or cologne? As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, it’s OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren’t.
  • Sharp items like knives are not allowed on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
