Do you have any tips for my flight to Trincomalee?

  • What you pack in your hand luggage can make the difference between a comfortable flight, and one you’d rather forget. Start with the crucial things, like a valid ID (like your passport) and your travel documents. Once they’re packed, toss in any medications you might need. Next? Consider your comfort factor. A neck pillow, noise-canceling headphones and a good book will help the time fly by while you’re soaring above the clouds.
  • You’ll also want to check with your airline regarding what you can’t bring on board your flight. Knives, box cutters, razor blades, batons and swords are among the prohibited items. Anything explosive, sharp or flammable is generally not allowed in your hand baggage. Remember to pack any sports equipment like ski poles or baseball bats only in your checked luggage.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Whether traveling short or long-haul, layering up is key to a comfortable flight. Choose loose, breathable fabrics that will keep you cool and bring a sweater for any in-flight temperature changes. Your feet will be happy in a pair of flat shoes or sneakers.
  • Consider wearing compression tights or socks to help prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT). This condition is a result of blood clotting that can be caused by long periods of sitting, especially on long-haul flights. Performing leg and foot stretches in your seat or walking around the cabin will help improve your circulation.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Trincomalee?
Booking a cheap, last-minute flight to Trincomalee is as easy as being flexible with your travel plans. Leave your options open with your flight times, travel dates and choice of carrier.
