  • A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you’ll want a few basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don’t forget to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up in breathable clothing and take a sweater just in case you get cold. Pick flat, slightly roomy shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your main luggage.
  • Most travellers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There’s plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and move your legs and feet. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

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

  • Have your boarding pass and ID handy. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to present to security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you on board.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
