How to survive the flight to Buncrana?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Buncrana could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We’ve rounded up some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and pack a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good idea.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Buncrana?
Being prepared before your flight will make your getaway to Buncrana easy and painless. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you on board.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
