How to survive the flight to Aktau?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Aktau could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We’ve put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a cruisy experience if you’ve got all the right things. Firstly, you’ll want a few toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural fibers and pack a pullover in case it gets cool in the cabin. Go for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your main luggage.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Aktau?
It’s all about being prepared. We’ve pulled together some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Aktau, here you come:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
