Do you have any tips for my flight to Cheltenham?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've made a list of handy tips that will help get your Cheltenham escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a great experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and pick flat, enclosed footwear like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cheltenham?
The trick is to be well organized before you get to security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Cheltenham in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

  • Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Traveling with your favorite cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
