Cheap Flights to Borgarnes

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well enough. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will get your Borgarnes holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and remember to pack a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin. Pick flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
• A serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Borgarnes a pleasure. Here are some handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
