We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and having a blast in Rathdowney in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, pack your passport, important documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Rathdowney?
It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some top tips for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Rathdowney, here you come:

  • Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, 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.
  • It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
