How to survive the flight to Jaffna?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Jaffna could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We’ve rounded up some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be easy if you’ve got all the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want a few basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have a sharp object lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and take a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your luggage.
  • You’ve probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There’s plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Jaffna?
The trick is to be prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Jaffna in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

  • Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready to show.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
