Question 10

How to survive the flight to Alor Setar?

Accepted Answer

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. We've put together a list of handy hints that will help get your Alor Setar holiday started on the right note.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

First and foremost, put in your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

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 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

Comfort should always be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common occurrence. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a smart option.
The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The great news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Alor Setar?

Accepted Answer

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

Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be separately scanned.
Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
