How to survive the flight to Thoothukudi?
No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you’re well organised. We’ve compiled a list of top travel tips that will get your Thoothukudi escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Travelling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you’ve got all the right gear. Firstly, you’ll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight can be as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Thoothukudi?
The answer is simple — be organised. We’ve compiled some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Thoothukudi, here you come:

  • Keep your passport and boarding pass within close reach. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked for by airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • It’s also possible you’ll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors can’t be taken on board. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
