We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a ball in Shannon in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a great experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to remove.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Shannon?
It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Shannon, here you come:

  • Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the 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.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Traveling with a new cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
