How to survive the flight to Chidambaram?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Chidambaram could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It’s also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of your plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pack a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Chidambaram?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We’ve rounded up some useful tips for an easy trip through security. Watch out Chidambaram, here you come:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don’t hold up the line.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Can’t travel without your favorite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren’t.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
