  • A plane trip can be easy if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up in breathable clothing and take a jacket just in case you get chilly. Opt for roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your luggage.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. But the good news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Islay Island?
The simple answer is — be prepared. We’ve rounded up some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Islay Island, here you come:

  • First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
