How to survive the flight to Glasgow?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Glasgow could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We’ve pulled together some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don’t forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight often lies in your clothing choices. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Glasgow?
It’s easy — be prepared. We’ve pulled together some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Glasgow, here you come:

  • Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don’t hold up the line.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the 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.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
