Do you have any tips for my flight to Islay?
Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Islay could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Islay?
It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Islay, here you come:

  • Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
