Do you have any tips for my flight to Medaketiya?
If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips for a stress-free start to your time in Medaketiya. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
  • Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Medaketiya?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Medaketiya in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:
  • Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Can't travel without your favourite perfume or 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-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
