How to survive the flight to Carrickfergus?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you’re well organised. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will help get your Carrickfergus holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It’s also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don’t forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your number one priority when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are your best bet.
  • It’s likely you’ve heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There’s plenty you can do to lower your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Carrickfergus?
The answer is simple — be organised. We’ve rounded up some top tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Carrickfergus, here you come:

  • Have your ID and boarding pass at hand. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to show at security.
  • Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be separately scanned.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
