How to survive the flight to Arugam Bay?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Arugam Bay could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We’ve pulled together some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring items that’ll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a good read. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, don’t forget 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:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • You’ve probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There’s plenty you can do to lower your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Arugam Bay?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Arugam Bay quick and painless. We’ve rounded up some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

  • Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
  • Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren’t.
  • Airlines won’t allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
