How to survive the flight to Tanjung Balai?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Tanjung Balai could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, bring items that’ll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don’t forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a sweater just in case you get cold. Pick roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of flying long-haul is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Tanjung Balai?
It’s easy — be prepared. We’ve pulled together some top tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Tanjung Balai, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you’re permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
