Do you have any tips for my flight to Sukau?
Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Sukau could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

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 or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to pull on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended 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 Sukau?
Being prepared before your flight can make your getaway to Sukau a piece of cake. Here are some handy tips for a swift journey through security:

  • Be sure to have your ID and travel documents handy. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take 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-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
