How to survive the flight to Pontefract?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our top tips and you’ll be zooming through airport security and discovering Pontefract before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. You’ll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don’t forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of your plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The great news is there are ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander through the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Pontefract?
It’s simple — be prepared. We’ve rounded up some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Pontefract, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
