Do you have any tips for my flight to Cowes?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and enjoying Cowes in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean 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 liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cowes?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Cowes, here you come:

  • Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
