Do you have any tips for my flight to Paiela?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and having a ball in Paiela before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and go for shoes that are flat and easy to slip on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Paiela?
It's all about being organized. We've put together some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Paiela, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Traveling with a new perfume or cologne? 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 on board.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
