How to survive the flight to Ithaafushi?
If you’re poorly prepared, travelling can be challenging. But there’s no need to worry. Follow these handy tips for a pain-free start to your getaway in Ithaafushi.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right stuff. First things first, you’ll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents 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 baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your prime concern when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes work well.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander through the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ithaafushi?
The simple answer is — be prepared. We’ve rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Ithaafushi, here you come:

  • Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner 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.
  • There’s a possibility that you’ll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
