How to survive the flight to Egilsstadir?
If you’re poorly prepared, travelling can be challenging. But don’t hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your time in Egilsstadir.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you’ll hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are your best bet.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander through the cabin wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Egilsstadir?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We’ve pulled together some top tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Egilsstadir, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • It’s also likely that you’ll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
