How to survive the flight to Buraydah?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our top tips and you’ll be speeding through airport security and exploring Buraydah in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, important documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you’ll step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and don’t forget to bring a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also recommended.
  • Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Buraydah?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Buraydah easy and painless. Here are some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them handy so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
