How to survive the flight to Almaty?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you’ll be cruising through airport security and enjoying Almaty in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right things. First things first, you’ll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to take a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during longer flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Almaty?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We’ve put together some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Almaty, here you come:

  • First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • It’s also likely that you’ll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Airlines won’t allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
