  • Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and opt for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to slip on and off.
  • Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bantry?

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the line.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
