Check-in desks open approximately 2-3 hours prior to departure and we recommend you check-in at least 2 hours before. Each passenger must check-in their own luggage as this is an important security check. You will need to produce your e-tickets and passports (e-tickets are checked against passports) and have your baggage weighed. Most airports no longer call out flight boarding details so you must watch the indicator board and individual TV monitors. Inghams cannot accept any responsibility for passengers who miss flights if they fail to check-in at the specified time shown on flight tickets.

Online check-in is available on all of our scheduled flights to Europe and North America. We will provide you with an airline locator with your e-tickets approximately 2 weeks before you travel. You will then be able to access your booking via your airline's website before departure and pre-book your seats and check-in online.

Online check-in also available with low cost carriers. We will provide you with an airline locator with your e-tickets approximately 2 weeks before you travel. You will then be able to access your booking via your airline's website before departure and pre-book your seats and check-in online.

Online check in is not available With Titan or TUI Airways.

Due to weight and volume restrictions, our airline partners impose the following baggage allowances per person.

Normally 20-23kg per person (excluding infants) but varies by airline. Your allowance will be shown on your e-ticket.
All airlines now strictly enforce these limits and will charge for excess baggage, either per kilo or by extra piece. Please check the airlines' websites for the most up-to-date information regarding baggage allowances.
Please note: All baggage restrictions are implemented and enforced by the airline - Inghams does not charge (or receive any revenue) for excess baggage.

Passengers (excluding infants) are allowed to carry ONE piece of cabin baggage on board free of charge. Handbag, briefcase, laptops, etc must be carried within your permitted 1 piece of cabin baggage. As a guide, your carry-on bag must be able to fit either underneath the seat or in the overhead compartment. Please check the airlines' websites for the most up-to-date information regarding baggage allowances.

Due to ongoing security restrictions, only liquids in containers of 100mls or less will be permitted through the passenger security screening points. Liquid items must be carried in a transparent re-sealable bag (about the size of a small freezer bag).

Essential medicines and medical equipment, eg hypodermic needles required for your holiday may be permitted onboard in larger quantities above the 100ml limit. Passengers should advise us and must have a note from their GP supporting this.

On short-haul services within Europe a "Buy on Board" service is now offered. Meals are served on all transatlantic services.

Liquid baby food or sterilised water, sufficient for the journey, can be taken through airport security. The accompanying adult may be required to verify by tasting.

The UK Government requires airlines to collect API for passengers on routes to and from the UK. Airlines will only provide each country's authorities with the relevant information required by them. However, some governments also require airlines to provide them with Passenger Name Records (PNR). Governments of some other countries also require API.

For most countries, API is restricted to the standard information contained in the Machine Readable Zone (MRZ) in machine-readable passports which can be scanned or swiped at airport check-in and transmitted to the country concerned at the time the aircraft departs. However, some countries are now requiring additional information from passengers that isn't contained in passports, or they are requiring it earlier or both. We are legally required to collect your advance passenger information. You will receive further information before your departure when and how we need to collect your details.

Please note that any failure to provide the required information may result in your carriage being denied. Please be assured that we have measures in place to protect the personal information you provide us (please see our Privacy Policy).

More information can be found on the home office website.

Private Transfers are also available for the ultimate speed and convenience, and you can pre-book a private taxi transfer with us from the airport to your hotel. We offer private taxi transfers to groups of two to six people booking a full package with accommodation. If your group is larger than six people, please contact us for a quote. You can book a private transfer up to 14 days before departure, but we recommend you confirm this at time of booking to ensure it is reserved for you.

Travel by plane FAQ's

Through our partnership with winners of the prestigious ‘British Travel Awards’ Airport Parking & Hotels – APH we are able to offer up to 35% discount to all of our Inghams Santa Breaks customers at Gatwick, Manchester, Newcastle, East Midlands and Bristol. With our Lapland flights all departing early in the morning, to maximise your time visiting the Arctic, why not take advantage of some of the great ‘Airport Hotel and Parking’ packages and stay at an airport hotel the night before you fly. This takes the stress out of getting to the airport in the morning on time and finding the car park, and allows you to wake up fully refreshed ready to head to the North Pole and to meet the big man himself. If an overnight stay is not for you then the ‘Meet & Greet’ Valet Parking is the perfect way of dropping your car off as it saves you time, hassle free and is so convenient. Simply drive to the airport terminal where an APH chauffeur meets you and takes your car to their nearby secure car-park. On your return, your car is then delivered back to you directly at the terminal, for you to drive straight off home! Visit our Airport Parking, Hotels and Lounges page for more information and to book your Airport Parking for your holiday.

Generally there are Destination Experts, formally known as Reps present at our UK departure airports.

Seats cannot be requested in our transfers. If you are travelling between hotels with us, you will be advised of the arrangements for your transfer to your next hotel by your rep, towards the end of your initial stay. If you have chosen a private transfer, once you have collected your luggage you should speak to an Inghams Rep who will take you to your private transfer. If you’ve arranged your own transport, please call Reservations on 02045 388944 or let your Travel Agent know so we can advise the Inghams Reps.

If you need assistance at the airport, an Inghams Representative should be on hand to help near the check-in area. Further information will be included on your e-ticket. If you require wheelchair or special assistance, please call Reservations on 02045 388944 or let your Travel Agent know in advance, so we can advise the airport before you travel.

For important advice about airport security and airline travel, take a look at the Air passenger travel guidance and make yourself aware of the hand luggage restrictions.
