Do you have any tips for my flight to Salmiya?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. We've compiled a list of handy tips that will get your Salmiya escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a good read. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and wear flat, enclosed footwear like slip-ons.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Salmiya?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Salmiya a breeze. We've rounded up some handy hints for a speedy journey past security:
  • Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
