How to survive the flight to Irvine?
No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you’ve prepared well. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Irvine holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a comfortable experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Next, find room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

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 gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left for other occasions. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Irvine?
It’s all about being prepared. We’ve pulled together some top tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Irvine, here you come:

  • Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
