Do you have any tips for my flight to Unawatuna?
If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a worry-free start to your getaway in Unawatuna. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin 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, enclosed shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk 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 Unawatuna?
The secret is to be organised before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Unawatuna in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:
  • Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a chance you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
