How to survive the flight to Athlone?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you’ve prepared well. We’ve compiled a list of top travel tips that will help get your Athlone escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help pass the time, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It’s also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have sharp or pointed objects lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and bring a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin during longer flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights is also recommended.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Athlone?
The trick is to be prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Athlone in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board.
