Do you have any tips for my flight to Maclean?
If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints for a hassle-free start to your holiday in Maclean. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Travelling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your top priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Maclean?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Maclean a pleasure. Check out our useful tips for a speedy journey through security:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be separately scanned.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger 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 baggage.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
