Do you have any tips for my flight to Kandy?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. We've made a list of top travel tips that will help get your Kandy holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Kandy?
The secret is to be well prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Kandy in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:
  • Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Can't travel without your favourite cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
  • It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
