Do you have any tips for my flight to Makhachkala?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will help get your Makhachkala holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • First and foremost, put in your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by dressing in layers, and opt for slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
  • You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Makhachkala?
It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Makhachkala, here you come:
  • First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
  • Can't travel without your favourite hand and nail cream? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
