Do you have any tips for my flight to Shamkir?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and seeing the best of Shamkir in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Shamkir?
The trick is to be prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Shamkir in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
  • Can't travel without your favourite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
