Do you have any tips for my flight to Ilfracombe?
Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Ilfracombe could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and pick easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
  • You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ilfracombe?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Ilfracombe a breeze. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:
  • Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil 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), zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
