Do you have any tips for my flight to Bata-ata?
Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Bata-ata could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. Below are some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and wear flat, enclosed footwear like sneakers.
  • You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bata-ata?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Bata-ata in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
  • Can't travel without your favourite hand cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
