Easyjet, Ryanair and Jet2 passengers urged to 'pack a roll of cling film' in luggage

Jet2, Ryanair, and easyJet passengers are being urged to "pack a roll of cling film" before jetting off on holiday.

It's good advice for travellers departing from the UK this summer who plan to take jewellery including earrings, rings and necklaces. Sarah Rowlands, an expert at Pandora UK, advised: "Take a large piece of cling film and lay your jewellery out about 5cm apart on one half of the film. Then fold the other half of the cling film over so the jewellery is encased in film.

"Lastly, gently roll up the cling film with your jewellery inside so it will be compact and tangle-free for packing in a little box or pouch." It comes as UK gardeners are told to stop cutting the grass on their lawn.

The specialist suggested: "A great hack is to make use of small plastic bags and put your chains 90 per cent inside but leave the ends dangling out.", reports Birmingham Live.

"Seal the bag as usual and this will prevent any tangling of necklaces, chains, bracelets or anklets." Sarah added: "Reuse an old piece of cardboard or polystyrene and pierce little holes for your earrings to get through.

"Or pierce earrings through a fresh cotton ball for safe transport. This is better than storing multiple earrings loose in a little bag or pouch where they can bash each other and cause damage."

She warned: "It goes without saying to consider leaving very special or precious jewellery at home, especially if it's very valuable. Unless the item is insured, it's better to be safe than sorry.

"Some people even purchase cheaper versions of their engagement or wedding rings to take on holiday instead." Generally, there's no need to take off your jewellery when going through airport security in the UK.

However, metal jewellery can occasionally set off the metal detectors, potentially leading to additional screening or even a request for a full-body scan. To sidestep any hassle or hold-ups, it's usually wise to remove your jewellery and pop it in your hand luggage before you pass through security.
