How to survive the flight to Funafuti?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you’re well prepared. Follow these handy tips that will help get your Funafuti holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a magazine. You’ll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Always opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Funafuti?
The trick is to be well organised before you reach airport security. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Funafuti in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

  • Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
  • Travelling with a new perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, it’s OK to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
