Do you have any tips for my flight to Reading?
If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a worry-free start to your time in Reading. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Reading?
It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Reading, here you come:

  • Keep your passport and travel documents close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
  • It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
