How to survive the flight to Chelyabinsk?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Chelyabinsk could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a few magazines. It’s also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to bring a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin during longer flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
  • Most travellers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and move your legs and feet. Wander around the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Chelyabinsk?
It’s all about being organised. We’ve pulled together some top tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Chelyabinsk, here you come:

  • Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass handy. They’re the first things you’ll be asked for by airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you’re permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • There’s a possibility that you’ll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
