Do you have any tips for my flight to Gilgit?
If you're not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your getaway in Gilgit. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and opt for flat, closed-toe footwear like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Gilgit?
It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Look out Gilgit, here you come:

  • Be sure to have your travel documents and passport handy. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Want to bring along your favourite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
