With 218 flights expected to take off and land in Jersey in the days before Christmas, travellers are being reminded to prepare for their journeys.

Between Friday 20 December and Christmas Eve, more than 22,000 people pass through Jersey airport.

During this busy time, passengers can expect queues at check-in and security.

Any presents held in hand luggage should be unwrapped, to ensure they can be easily checked.

The 100ml rule is still in place for liquids. The bottles should be placed in a security tray, although there is no need to put them in a plastic bag.

It is recommended passengers get to the airport two hours before their flights and remove everything from their pockets before going through security checks.

People driving to the airport can use the overflow car park, which works the same as the long-stay car park.

Islanders fetching family or friends can stay in the long-stay car park for up to 30 minutes for free.

Flight details can also be checked on the Ports of Jersey website.
