How to survive the flight to Daydream Island?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Daydream Island could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We’ve compiled some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a great experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want some basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, find room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have a Swiss Army knife lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • It’s likely you’ve heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There’s plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, stay hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Daydream Island?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Daydream Island in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

  • Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Want to bring along your favourite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
