How to survive the flight to Essau?
If you’re not prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there’s no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your getaway in Essau.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and take a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Essau?
It’s easy — be prepared. We’ve rounded up some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Essau, here you come:

  • Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
