Do you have any tips for my flight to Kodaikanal?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will get your Kodaikanal vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • A plane trip can be a great experience if you pack the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and opt for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to slip on and off.
  • You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Kodaikanal?
The trick is to be organized before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Kodaikanal in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:
  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
