Do you have any tips for my flight to Kontiolahti?
Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Kontiolahti could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Kontiolahti?
The trick is to be well prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Kontiolahti in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:
  • Have your boarding pass and ID easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • 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.
