  • First of all, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by donning layers, and wear flat, closed-toe footwear like slip-ons.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Gelioya?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Gelioya a piece of cake. We've compiled some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:
  • Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
