Do you have any tips for my flight to Fota?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a ball in Fota before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by layering up, and pick flat, enclosed footwear like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Fota?
The secret is to be well organised before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Fota before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

  • Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of 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 and will be confiscated.
