Do you have any tips for my flight to Wattala?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will help get your Wattala escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • It's simple — first, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are always good options. If you plan to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and wear closed-toe, flat footwear like sneakers.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Wattala?
The secret is to be well organised before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Wattala in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:
  • Keep your boarding pass and ID close by. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item 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-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
