Do you have any tips for my flight to Bilbao?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and enjoying Bilbao in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger 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. Wear layers and go for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to take on and off.
  • You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bilbao?
The answer is simple — be organised. We've put together some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Bilbao, here you come:

  • Have your ID and travel documents handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
  • It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
