How to survive the flight to Chiang Rai?
We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our insider tips and you’ll be speeding through the airport and having a blast in Chiang Rai in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s simple — first, put in your passport, important documents, wallet and vital medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you’ll touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have a sharp object lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of your airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and pack a sweater as it tends to get cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also recommended.
  • You’ve probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There’s lots you can do to lessen your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and get your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Chiang Rai?
Being organized before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Chiang Rai a breeze. Check out our useful tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • 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-lock bag, it’s fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
