How to survive the flight to Kandalama?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be cruising through airport security and having a ball in Kandalama before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a great experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you’ll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don’t forget to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight can be as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Kandalama?
As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you get to airport security. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Kandalama in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

  • Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • It’s also likely that you’ll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
