Do you have any tips for my flight to Mumbles?
If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your getaway in Mumbles. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It's easy — first, pack your passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to pull on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

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

  • Keep your passport and boarding pass easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
