Do you have any tips for my flight to Nelson?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. We've compiled a list of essential travel tips that will get your Nelson escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, pack your passport, official ID, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by layering up, and opt for flat, closed-toe footwear like slip-ons.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Nelson?
The secret is to be well prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Nelson in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Can't travel without your favourite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
  • It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
