How to survive the flight to Pinwatta?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and discovering Pinwatta in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of your airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and bring a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a wise idea.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Pinwatta?
It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some top tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Pinwatta, here you come:

  • Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops 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.
  • Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
