How to survive the flight to Nur-Sultan?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you’re well prepared. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Nur-Sultan holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you take the right gear. First things first, you’ll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight is often as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
  • A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks may also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Nur-Sultan?
Being organised before your flight will help make your getaway to Nur-Sultan a piece of cake. Read through our handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favourite perfume? No problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
