Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you’re prepared. We’ve made a list of top travel tips that will get your Elista holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s simple — first, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you’ll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you’ll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets cool in the cabin. Always opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your luggage.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Elista?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to security. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Elista before you know it. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

  • Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them handy so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
