How to survive the flight to Unst?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Unst could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We’ve rounded up some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s easy — first, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of your plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also recommended.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Unst?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Unst in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

  • Keep your ID and boarding pass within close reach. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to present to security.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There’s a chance you’ll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
