How to survive the flight to Petersburg?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and seeing the best of Petersburg in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a great experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Next, find room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of a plane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
  • The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Petersburg?
The trick is to be well prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Petersburg before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
  • Traveling with your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of 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.
