How to get through airport security fast when traveling to Gelsenkirchen
If you like the idea of spending more time at the airport bars and restaurants and less time navigating your way through security on your way to Gelsenkirchen, follow these suggestions:

  • Be sure you know the location of your boarding pass and travel ID. You don’t want to hold up the line when you’re asked to produce them.
  • Remove your jewellery, belt and shoes before arriving at the airport security checkpoint. Items like these are not permitted to pass through the body scanner.
  • Electronic items such as laptops, tablets and phones will need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Be sure they’re easily accessible.
  • When it comes to traveling with liquids or gels, every passenger is permitted a quart-sized clear resealable bag to keep containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
  • Airport security personnel will likely tell you to take off your shoes prior to entering the body scanner. Pick a pair that you can slip off easily. There’s nothing more irritating than having to do up your laces over and over again.
  • Razors and knives are prohibited from entering the aircraft. Put them in your checked luggage to avoid losing them at the security checkpoint.

How to find cheap flights

What is the best day to buy a plane ticket?

Airfares offered on Friday tend to be the cheapest, according to flight demand on Travelocity.ca in 2021. Purchasing your airfares on a Thursday or Saturday can also provide better value, however our advice if you’re looking to save money is to avoid booking on a Wednesday or Sunday. Our data shows that those two days have the highest ticket values on average, so keep this in mind if you’re browsing flight deals.

 

What are the cheapest days to fly?

Frequent travellers may already know this, earlier in the week is often the cheapest time to fly. Flights departing on a Monday are the cheapest of the week. Since flights towards the middle of the week tend to be more popular, this causes the prices to rise. This is why, on average, airfares booked on Travelocity.ca in 2021 were most expensive for Wednesday departures.

 

How far in advance can you book a flight?

Here’s the deal: It is typically possible to start comparing international airfares on Travelocity.ca up to 12 months in advance. However, it does depend on the carrier as not all airlines release their prices that far out. According to our 2021 flight demand trends, last minute planners can still bag a bargain with some of the cheapest fares appearing 2-4 weeks prior to their travel dates.

*According to flight demand on Travelocity.ca from January to December 2021. Savings are subject to change and may vary depending on selections made.
