How to survive the flight to Irvine?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Irvine could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We’ve compiled some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s easy — first, pack your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you’ll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have a pocket knife lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
  • It’s likely you’ve heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Irvine?
Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Irvine quick and painless. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID handy. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be separately scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
