If you like the thought of spending more time at the airport bar and less time wading through security on your way to Sharjah, follow these suggestions:

• Security personnel will request to see your passport and boarding pass as part of their checks. Have them in an accessible place, ready for inspection.
• Take off your jewellery, belt and shoes before arriving at the airport security checkpoint. Items such as these are not permitted in the body scanner.
• Laptops must be taken out of their protective cases and placed in a tray for inspection.
• When you get to the security checkpoint, you'll be asked to put all creams, liquids and gels in a separate tub for scanning. Make sure they're all stored in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and sealed in a clear zip-lock bag.
• Loosen your shoelaces in preparation for entering the body scanner. Depending on what sort of shoes you're wearing, security may tell you to remove them.
• Some countries have strict biosecurity laws. Consider where you're going to and whether or not you're allowed to fly with fruit and meats.
