Question 10

How to survive the flight to Thessaloniki?

Accepted Answer

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through the airport and enjoying Thessaloniki in no time.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Next, find room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

Question 11

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

Accepted Answer

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to Thessaloniki easy and painless. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned.
Travelling with your favourite perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
