How to survive the flight to Rishikesh?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be speeding through the airport and discovering Rishikesh in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a good read. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don’t forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your highest priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a smart option.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Rishikesh?
It’s simple — be prepared. We’ve pulled together some helpful hints for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Rishikesh, here you come:

  • Have your ID and boarding pass within close reach. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to present to security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
  • Traveling with a new hand cream? Not a problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, it’s fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
  • Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp items are not allowed on board. They’ll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
