How to survive the flight to South Uist?
If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints for a pleasant start to your getaway in South Uist.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of your airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and pack a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to South Uist?
The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a stress-free trip through security. Look out South Uist, here you come:

  • Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
