How to survive the flight to Paramaribo?

Accepted Answer

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will get your Paramaribo escape started on the right foot.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and something to read. Next, find room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

Comfort really should be your highest priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a good idea.
The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a pair of compression socks is also a wise idea.

Question 11

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

Accepted Answer

The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some top tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Paramaribo, here you come:

Keep your travel documents and ID someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
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.
Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
