Bringing a Souvenir Back from the Resort?
Traveling can be an exciting adventure, but it comes with its own set of rules and regulations, especially when it comes to transporting certain items. This article will focus on two such topics: traveling with aquarium fish and the foods that are not allowed on most international airlines.
When planning to travel with your beloved aquarium fish, it's essential to be prepared. Special containers are required, and a vet certificate stating the fish's health is mandatory. It's recommended to change the water and not feed them before the flight to ensure a smoother journey. Not all airlines allow this, so it's crucial to check with your specific airline beforehand.
Some airlines, such as Ryanair and EasyJet, have banned the transportation of surströmming, a Swedish canned fermented Baltic herring, due to its strong odour. The main issue with surströmming on a plane isn't the smell, but the potential for the can to explode due to pressure changes. Other cheeses like Brie, Roquefort, and specific types of Camembert are also often prohibited.
If you're planning to bring cheese on board, ensure it's in airtight packaging, like a vacuum-sealed bag. Strongly scented items are usually included in the list of prohibited products, and the list can be found on the airline's website.
Another item that's off-limits is Durian, an Asian fruit with a smell compared to dirty socks. This fruit is not allowed on most international airlines, neither in carry-on nor checked baggage.
Before flying with aquarium fish, it's important to remember not to feed them before the flight as hungry fish will consume less oxygen. It's also recommended to change the water in the aquarium to slightly cooler than usual before the flight to help the fish endure the flight better.
Each airline or airport has its own list of rules, so it's always best to check before traveling. For instance, the Ministry of Transport of Vologda Oblast has provided guidelines for traveling with aquarium fish.
In conclusion, traveling with aquarium fish and certain foods can be possible, but it requires careful planning and adherence to the rules set by each airline. Always check with your airline before traveling to ensure a smooth journey.
