We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and discovering Pokhara before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Pokhara?
A little pre-planning before your flight can make your getaway to Pokhara a breeze. Below are some useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Can't travel without your favourite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
