Question 10

Do you have any tips for my flight to Vientiane?

Accepted Answer

If you're not prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks for a trouble-free start to your time in Vientiane. What to pack in your hand luggage:

First, pack in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

Your aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Pick slip-on footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Question 11

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

Accepted Answer

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Vientiane, here you come:

Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready to show.
Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned separately.
Travelling with a new cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you on board.
There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
