How to survive the flight to Helsinki?
No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you’ve prepared well enough. We’ve compiled a list of top travel tips that will get your Helsinki vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you’ll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight often lies in your choice of clothing. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Helsinki?
As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to security. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Helsinki in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

  • Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don’t hold up the line.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind 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.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
