Do you have any tips for my flight to Mangaia?

If you're not prepared, travelling can be daunting. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints for a hassle-free start to your time in Mangaia. What to pack in your hand luggage:

The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Mangaia?

Being organised before your flight will make your getaway to Mangaia a breeze. Read through our useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready to show.
The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
