Do you have any tips for my flight to Smolensk?
If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a worry-free start to your getaway in Smolensk. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you take the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your phone and charger, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and pick shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to slip on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Smolensk?
As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Smolensk in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
  • Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually 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 inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
