How to survive the flight to Chunnakam?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and discovering Chunnakam before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight is often as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
  • A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a quality pair of compression tights or socks is also a wise idea.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Chunnakam?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Chunnakam a piece of cake. Below are some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

  • Be sure to have your travel documents and ID close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be separately scanned.
  • Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
