Do you have any tips for my flight to Chiang Saen?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. We've put together a list of handy tips that will get your Chiang Saen escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Chiang Saen?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Chiang Saen, here you come:
  • First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
