How to survive the flight to Cardiff?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you’re well organised. Check out these top travel tips that will help get your Cardiff escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, pack your passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, you’ll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
  • You’ve probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to lessen your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cardiff?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Cardiff in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually 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-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Knives and other sharp items can’t be taken on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
