How to survive the flight to Donegal?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Donegal could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We’ve pulled together some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a great flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It’s also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don’t forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your highest priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a smart option.
  • You’ve probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to lessen your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and get your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Donegal?
The secret is to be organised before you reach security. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Donegal in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand 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. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
