How to survive the flight to Ironsides?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well enough. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will help get your Ironsides escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack in your passport, important documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are always good options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

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) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfortable clothing and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ironsides?
A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your trip to Ironsides a breeze. We've rounded up some handy tips for a swift journey through security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
  • It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
