We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you’ll be hightailing it through airport security and seeing the best of Papaikou in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to be prepared. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a good read. You’ll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don’t forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight often lies in your choice of clothing. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help reduce this risk.

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

  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There’s a possibility that you’ll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can’t be taken on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
