How to survive the flight to Ester?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be hightailing it through the airport and exploring Ester in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you’ll step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your main priority when picking what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes work well.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ester?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Ester easy and painless. Check out our handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

  • First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them close by so you don’t hold up the line.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones need 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 though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
