How to survive the flight to Petersburg?
We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you’ll be cruising through airport security and seeing the best of Petersburg in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, bring items that’ll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a good read. It’s also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, don’t forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of your plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and don’t forget to bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good idea.
  • Most travellers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to lessen your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Petersburg?
The secret is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Petersburg in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

  • Be sure to have your passport and travel documents within easy reach. They’re the first things you’ll be asked for by airport security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
