Do you have any tips for my flight to Shimla?
If you're not prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pain-free start to your time in Shimla. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of 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 promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Shimla?
Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Shimla a pleasure. Here are some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Have your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you on board.
  • Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
