Question 10

How to survive the flight to Santorini?

Accepted Answer

If you're not prepared, air travel can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your getaway in Santorini.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

First and foremost, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are always good options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural fibers and don't forget to pack a jacket just in case you get cold. Always opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your checked baggage.
The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The good news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

Question 11

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

Accepted Answer

It's all about being organised. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Watch out Santorini, here you come:

Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
Travelling with your favourite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you on board.
The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
