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

  • It's easy — first, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Putaruru?
Being prepared before your flight will make your getaway to Putaruru easy and painless. Below you'll find some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock 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 shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
