Do you have any tips for my flight to Almaty?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. We've put together a list of essential travel tips that will get your Almaty vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Almaty?
Being organized before your flight can make your getaway to Almaty a piece of cake. Below are some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

  • Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Want to bring along your favorite cologne? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
