Do you have any tips for my flight to Stornoway?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've planned ahead. Check out these top travel tips that will get your Stornoway holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some great options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to take a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Stornoway?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Stornoway a piece of cake. Here are some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

  • First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Travelling with your favourite hand cream? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.

Book with confidence

Scotland’s Outer Hebrides are a magical destination offering a special island experience all of their own. Thanks to the rugged landscape, Gaelic culture, and friendly locals, the region offers a wonderful break from the hustle and bustle of the mainland. To get away from it all, visitors can easily reach the islands by sea or air.

Flights to Isle of Lewis via Stornaway (SYY)

For those who don’t want to take the CalMac ferry, Stornoway has its own airport (SYY) that offers regularly scheduled flights to and from the mainland, including the airports at Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Inverness. Situated in Melbost on the northeast of Lewis, just two miles from the town of Stornaway, the airfield provides a quick and easy way to tour not just Lewis, but Harris and the rest of the Outer Hebrides as well.

Take a Trip to the Outer Hebrides

Located forty miles to the west of the Scottish mainland, the Isle of Lewis makes up the largest proportion of the Hebridean archipelago. Lewis is in fact the northern portion of a single island called Lewis and Harris, with the area called Harris making up the southerly, more mountainous section.

Thanks to the low-lying and fertile landscape on Lewis, the majority of the population is located in the north. This area of the island is home to Stornoway, the largest settlement in the Outer Hebrides. The island retains a distinct identity shaped by its religious and cultural traditions, and offers an enthralling experience.

See Callanais Stone Circle for Yourself

Anyone visiting Lewis should make sure they stop off to see the ancient and stunning Callanais standing stones. These Neolithic monuments date back five thousand years and beguile visitors to this day. Another fascinating historical site is the Arnol Blackhouse. This traditional house is an ever-popular attraction for visitors to the island and offers a fascinating glimpse into the island life of centuries past.

Explore the Atlantic Coastline of Lewis

Perhaps the main attraction of Lewis is its stunning landscape. Made up of countless small lochans, peat bogs, and beautiful white sandy beaches lining its western Atlantic coast, this inspiring landscape is rich in scenery as well as history. Thanks to the low population density of the region, there are few better places to get away from it all and enjoy some true wilderness adventures.

Visit the Capital of Lewis, Stornaway

However as remote as this stunning location can feel, it has no shortage of amenities. The town of Stornoway is packed with things to see and do, and should probably be the first stop off point for visitors. As the cultural centre of Lewis, and perhaps the Outer Hebrides as a whole, Stornoway boasts art galleries such as the An Lanntair Gallery. This attraction offers lovely views along the scenic Stornoway harbour, as well as regular exhibitions and a high-quality café.

Enjoy Stornoway Harbour

No trip to the town is complete without a pleasing walk along the waterfront and harbour. A hike along the shore to Lews Castle is one of the best ways to enjoy this, as it provides lovely views of the town back across the harbour.

You are sure to have a memorable and enchanting time on this magical island. To start planning flights and accommodation, and research the best deals and attractions on offer, just use the Expedia search tool now.
