Question 10

How to survive the flight to Kolkata?

Accepted Answer

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and seeing the best of Kolkata before you know it.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

A plane ride can be easy if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help reduce this risk.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Kolkata?

Accepted Answer

The secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Kolkata in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
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 product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
