Do you have any tips for my flight to Ararat?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've put together a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Ararat escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, put in your passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are always good options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ararat?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Watch out Ararat, here you come:

  • Have your boarding pass and passport easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
