Do you have any tips for my flight to Blackwater?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. Take a peek at these handy tips that will help get your Blackwater escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Blackwater?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Blackwater a pleasure. We've compiled some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

  • Keep your ID and travel documents within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume? As long as the volume is no greater 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 bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
