Do you have any tips for my flight to Hambantota?
Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Hambantota could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. Here are some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a thrilling book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and wear closed-toe, flat footwear like slip-ons.
  • The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Hambantota?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Hambantota in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:
  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo 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), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
  • Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
