Do you have any tips for my flight to Calafat?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organised. We've put together a list of handy tips that will help get your Calafat holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, important documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some great options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are flat and easy to slip on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Calafat?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Calafat a pleasure. Below are some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
