Do you have any tips for my flight to Scotland?
If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints for a pain-free start to your getaway in Scotland. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a good read. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and wear slightly roomy, flat shoes like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Scotland?
The answer is simple — be organised. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Scotland, here you come:

  • Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Want to bring along your favourite perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is 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 bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
