How to survive the flight to Kandy?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our insider tips and you’ll be speeding through the airport and seeing the best of Kandy in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s easy — first, put in your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you’ll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favourite movies are good options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to pack a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
  • A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It’s the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks may also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Kandy?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Kandy a pleasure. Below are some handy tips for a swift journey past security:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • 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 product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There’s a chance you’ll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
