Do you have any tips for my flight to Islay Island?
Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Islay Island could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and opt for slightly roomy, flat shoes like slip-ons.
  • You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Islay Island?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Islay Island a piece of cake. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

  • Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
  • 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.

The Isle of Islay is the southernmost isle of Scotland’s Inner Hebrides, a truly spectacular region of a country that is known for its dramatic and beautiful landscapes. The island is serviced by the Islay Airport (ILY), which operates flights exclusively to other islands and the mainland of Scotland, and is located approximately 5 miles from the largest town of Port Ellen. Those hoping to travel throughout the Inner Hebrides can also use the CalMac ferry system, which uses the harbour in Port Ellen.

Flights to the Isle of Islay (ILY)

The Isle of Islay is only home to one local airport, and those hoping to fly in and out of its single terminal can choose between the destinations of Colonsay, Oban, and Glasgow. If you’re arriving at Islay Airport, you will find it easy to reach the main town of Port Ellen, as there are taxi services, car hire services, and a public bus service that can provide you with transportation to and from various destinations on the island. Remember, travellers using Expedia can easily research the cheapest available flights to and from Islay Airport, as well as discover the best deals on local hotels and car hire services to use throughout their stay.

Why Fly to the Isle of Islay?

Known as the “Queen of the Hebrides” for both its mild climate and picturesque views, the Isle of Islay is a serene destination that is not overrun by tourists. However, those who do head here for their holiday will find the locals to be plenty welcoming.

The island is also known throughout the world for its famous whisky, produced with the unique flavour of the “Islay malts”. Such iconic brands as Bowmore, Laphroaig and Ardbeg have their distilleries on the island, and budding bon vivants would do well to pay them a visit. With a number of quaint towns and villages such as Port Ellen, Port Charlotte, and Port Askaig, Islay will provide you with a wonderful scenery to relax and unwind in.

Those planning a visit to Islay should also consider touring the neighbouring Isle of Jura, whose much more austere and mountainous terrain contrasts heavily with the bounty of Islay. Jura provides visitors with rich insights into the diversity of landscapes found throughout the Hebrides. Similarly to Islay, Jura is also well known for its production of fine whiskies, and would make another perfect stop on a whisky tour of Scotland.

Flying Into Islay Airport

Because Islay Airport is small, and only operates a handful of flights a day, visitors should not worry about any crowds at the airport. Nor should they be concerned with having to wait in line for transportation upon arrival. However, if you’re looking to hire a car for your time on Islay, be sure to contact the car hire company in advance. You can ensure both that a car is available upon arrival, and that you receive the best possible price on your rental.

To begin planning your tour of Scotland’s Hebrides, and discover all the excellent attractions that this scenic part of the country has to offer, start by using the Expedia search tool now.
