Do you have any tips for my flight to Bolton?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well prepared. We've made a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Bolton holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are good options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes like sneakers.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bolton?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Bolton before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

  • Keep your passport and travel documents at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
