Do you have any tips for my flight to Nias?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. We've compiled a list of handy tips that will help get your Nias holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • A plane ride can be easy if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and go for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Nias?
It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Nias, here you come:
  • First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
