How to survive the flight to Makin?
If you’re not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But don’t hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a pleasant start to your time in Makin.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, you’ll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Don layers of breathable clothing and don’t forget to pack a sweater just in case you get chilly. Pick a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

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

  • Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don’t hold up the line.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you on board.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren’t.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
