How to survive the flight to Rila?
No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you’re well prepared. We’ve put together a list of handy hints that will get your Rila escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch a few z’s, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you’ll hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and remember to take a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Rila?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Rila quick and painless. Below you’ll find some top tips for a swift journey past security:

  • Be sure to have your travel documents and ID handy. They’re the first things you’ll be asked for by security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, it’s OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
