How to survive the flight to Pannipitiya?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you’re prepared. We’ve put together a list of top travel tips that will get your Pannipitiya vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It’s also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have a pocket knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, 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 plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to take a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as often as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Pannipitiya?
It’s easy — be prepared. We’ve rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Pannipitiya, here you come:

  • Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass within close reach. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to present to security.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever 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 additional screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
