Question 10

How to survive the flight to Hickstead?

Accepted Answer

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and having a ball in Hickstead in next to no time.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

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 your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
Unfortunately, a risk of flying long distances is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help lower your risk.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Hickstead?

Accepted Answer

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Hickstead in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
