Good Morning Britain travel expert tells passengers how to avoid lengthy airport queues

Important advice has been given to travellers as they face delays due to staffing issues at UK airports. A top travel expert has been speaking on Good Morning Britain about the problems airports have been facing in recent weeks due to staff shortages.

Delays have been reported at airports in Manchester, Birmingham and Bristol, with passengers describing the delays as a 'shambles,' BristolLive reports. Travel expert Simon Calder has given some helpful tips to ease the stress for passengers due to jet off on holiday.

On what travellers should take with them, Simon said: "Do not check in any baggage. If you want to go with British Airways for instance, they will allow you to take 46kg of hand luggage. Then, first of all, you're not queuing up there. You're not risking your luggage turning up in Athens when you've flown to Rome."
